Scientists: Genetically Modified Humans Can Fight Climate Change
Canada Free Press ^ | 10/08/15 | Patrick Wood

Posted on 10/08/2015 5:10:25 PM PDT by Sean_Anthony

The U.N.'s dream of Sustainable Development is precisely a Brave New World

It was just a matter of time before Eugenics met Climate Change. Even if it sounds like science fiction and absurd speculation, the discussion is taking place now in scientific circles.

In fact, this is the ultimate application of science to the human condition. For instance, designer babies might be genetically engineered to be smaller as adults: This would proportionally reduce their carbon footprint.

Or genes might be inserted to improve night vision. That would allow nighttime lighting requirements to be reduced, thus saving boatloads of energy and reducing carbon.

Other ideas are increased body hair could keep you warm in the winter to save on heating oil and less intelligence so you wouldn’t be so tempted to be greedy and over-consume earth’s resources. Well of course: Everyone knows that simple-minded people don’t have strong materialistic aspirations.

Mutate everyone into hairy Democrats with good night vision? Sounds like a bad 1950s SciFi flick.

Ok, let me see if I’ve got this straight: the same people that say GMO food is bad and should be banned because of imagined results think that GMO people are good and somehow going to save the planet from an imagined problem?

It sounds as if someone is out to create a "Master Race".

Oh geeeez, not that sh*t again.

Ideal liberal modified “human” would breathe methane, exhale oxygen, and be completely brainless.

So they worry about making a human capable of “less footprint”, but can’t modify us to have less disease. (A bit resentful right now because I have been suffering from some unknown condition causing all kinds of havoc on my life.)

Of course, less disease would make us live longer, meaning more “footprint”. God forbid.

Also, if they really want to reduce our footprint, they’d just eliminate us.

I hate commie assholes, and that’s all these jackasses are.

Green = Red.

Huh? But I thought global warming meant there won't be any more winters once we hit 2040 or 50?
