I agree with your thinking. It really is all this short term want over long term need that is destroying us and our habitat. Off the top, a few things come to mind leading me to know there would be quite a bit of interesting discussion around this topic. For example: just imagine the porn industry with 200 year old talent (because there will always be porn.) Would we still revere youth? With longevity or even immortality, food, living spaces, and industry would have to be completely rethought. What an exciting conversation that will be! If we all get on the same page with common goals and put in the effort, we can achieve anything. We just have to want it.
