Never Say Die: Immortality and Overpopulation


Michael B. Fossel, MD, Ph.D., founder of Rejuvenation Research and author of The Immortality Edge, draws on Nobel Prize-winning genetic research to advise us on slowing the aging process. John Seager, President and CEO of Population Connection and former staffer at the Environmental Protection Agency, tempers the excitement over lengthening life spans by discussing effects including overpopulation and increased competition for already-scarce resources. They join Sally Jackson, a Vice President of Ford Hall Forum, to debate the critical issues facing a population nigh on a significantly extended life expectancy.
