So when it happens, will we stop having kids? Because our current population and lifestyle do not seem sustainable. I only see population increasing and lifestyle being more burdensome on environment.
- zhoujianfu 7y agoI already did!
- tomerico 7y agoIronically, if people that care about the planet don’t have kids to save the planet, you will be left with more people that don’t care about the planet down the road
- newnewpdro 7y agoI don't know about you, but some of my teachers and favorite musicians had far more of an impact on my attitudes toward the environment and having children than my parents ever did. This fallacy that the only way to fix the world is to make kids of your own that will make it better is ridiculous.
- anthonypasq 7y agopopulation will plateau
- danielschlaug 7y agoJust let immortal people have no more than one kid. That way the population (of immortals) can double at most.
- ChrisLomont 7y agoThen non-immortals can have as many immortal kids as they want, so immortals can still increase without bound.
- nbates80 7y agoI don't have interest in having kids. But I guess that if I was facing immortality or the prospect of reaching twice my age I would be even less interested on having kids. I imagine people with access to anti aging therapies would postpone having children further and further.
- maerF0x0 7y agomaybe immortal people care even more about the longterm well being of climate / ecosystem?
