TOKYO (Kyodo) -- The average life expectancy of Japanese people declined in 2022 for the second straight year, affected significantly by the coronavirus pandemic, according to the health ministry.
I will express a very unpopular and controversional opinion, but truth can be cold and merciless: if we don't make life interplanetary a lot of people will die of starvation from overpopulation in a few decades.
Elderly people, while being an important source of wisdom, are objectively a burden to every society, economically and sanitaryly. They can't be the majority.
We need young and productive people to keep any form of society going. I'm not saying that coronavirus was a good thing but maybe, just maybe, reducing life expectancy is not such a tragedy, for now.
Please reply objectively and rationally, not with your gut
And you think we will make significant enough farms on foreign worlds to make any dent in this in the next few decades? If we can't make enough food with a planet that's literally designed with us in mind, there is no hope of making it work anywhere else that we can reach.
We somehow manage to feed more then the total human biomass in livestock as well as waste more than a third of the food we produce. We are far from eating in the most efficient way possible.
