Agriculture technology has outpaced climate effects. SO FAR. Eight major factors have changed agriculture in the last 50 years. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Tanko Member since: Aug 15, 2019 Threads: 0 Posts: 1964 | U.S. agriculture is aided by climate change. This is also true in Europe, where the growing season has lengthened by more than ten days since 1992. "115 years of data reveal longer U.S. growing season, temp trends" Lengthening of the growing season in wheat and maize producing regions "Our analyses also show that climate change has increased the probability of extremely long growing seasons by a factor of 25, and decreased the probability of extremely short growing seasons." |

No matter. I’m used to conservatives deciding to finally do the right thing when it likely will cost us more by then. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

True for most people but science is very close to developing a genetic treatment that will make you live longer and stop the aging process if you have enough money to pay for it. Within the next decade they will come up with treatments that will let you live to probably a hundred and twenty-five. In the coming decades probably a hundred fifty to a hundred seventy-five years. And you won't be old and decrepit it will stop the aging process or slow it slow it down to a snails crawl. If you're a billionaire. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I doubt that it will happen but doesn't matter to me. Another decade and I will have beat the odds big time anyway. "but if you make yourselves sheep, the wolves will eat you." Benjamin Franklin |

It's happening now. They announced a while back that they had found the gene that ages you. Now they have to find a way to manipulate the gene. There is a lot of money involved here for whoever develops this. They will become an instant jillionaire. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

It's been the dream of every wealthy person or person in power since the dawn of time. To live a long long life. And it's just as sought after today. How many people in Congress are over 70. They would stay there forever if they could If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Yes, but this has broader economic implications, most of which are not good. Sure, it will be expensive initially, but then it will get cheaper and more people would start doing it. Social security is already not sustainable. There will be calls for Big Daddy Government to cover it for everyone, etc. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want." William T. Sherman |
