Volume 27: Aging
The Western world is heading towards a life expectancy of over 100 years or more, and other parts of the world are soon to follow. Visions of a continent full of geriatric hospitals and nursing homes come to mind. Currently the West is in a phase of 'age acceptance'. The better half of the older population has to be reintegrated into society, and be reconnected with production to allow for the care of the other half. But another perspective looms on the doing away with aging altogether. Medical and material research is heading in the direction of solving deterioration. Perhaps it is just another take on the sustainability revolution.
