Because it's #EarthDay and this new article of mine had about 1000 comments last week in various places, I wanted to republish it on Medium. This article is really about pointing out that over-defending the planet's environment and over-worrying about climate change will shorten your lives, despite the counter-intuitiveness of that. Only technology saves, so our time and resources must be spent developing #transhumanism, and not protecting the planet (unless it adds directly to longevity). https://medium.com/@zoltanistvan/envi...
