How Long Do You Want to Live? →
New biomedical discoveries may bring a steeper increase in life span — but not everyone wants it. But I certainly do and let’s just keep in mind if people are living 150 years+, the way we consume global resources will be solved in a sustainable way. #proactionary science!
