some scholars are asking, what if we could engineer human beings to be more energy efficient? A new paper to be published in Ethics, Policy & Environment proposes a series of biomedical modifications that could help humans, themselves, consume less.
... the paper suggests that parents could make use of genetic engineering or hormone therapy in order to birth smaller, less resource-intensive children.
The lead author of the paper, S. Matthew Liao, is a professor of philosophy and bioethics at New York University. Liao is keen to point out that the paper is not meant to advocate for any particular human modifications, or even human engineering generally; rather, it is only meant to
introduce human engineering as one possible, partial solution to climate change

Стас, ну чем climate change виноват, что от него у разных мудаков течет крыша. Так можно не любить, я знаю, Элвиса или Мадонну.

Дык удобная больно теория. Как религия - все подогнать можно. От закрытия электростанций до евгеники.
