My futurist article on the environment sweeps across many top Australian sites

I know some didn't like this story of mine, but it does discuss and promote transhumanism quite a bit. It also addresses some of the issues opponents of life extension and longevity research have, namely overpopulation from longer lives. This story was picked up by Australia's most popular news website (News.com.au), owned by News Corp Australia, and then spread through many of its major paper/sites as the lead in their tech sections, including the largest ones such as The Australian, The Daily Telegraph, The Courier-Mail, The Herald Sun, Perth Now, The Mercury (Tasmania), The Advertiser, and many others (News Corp Australia owns over a 100 papers/sites). Collectively, these sites reach many millions. Some of the larger media site links are below: http://www.news.com.au/technology/env... or http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/tech... or http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/... or http://www.couriermail.com.au/technol...
