Completely agreed. If the average global life expectancy were to drop from 70 years today to 35 years, that would be a tragedy even larger than the holocaust. B

Completely agreed. If the average global life expectancy were to drop from 70 years today to 35 years, that would be a tragedy even larger than the holocaust. But that's what life was like for the average human 100 years ago. The vast majority of humans have had fewer than 30 years to live. That really sucks. Now imagine we're talking about a time when the average life span is one thousand years (or one million, or one billion), and the vast majority of humans got to experience less than 10% of that. Well, that's what is happening now. That's not to say life is sad. I would much rather have 30 years of life than 0 years. But life can be so much more than it is today.
