Ultrasound As a Male Contraceptive
TeslaBoy writes "The BBC has an article about using ultrasound aimed at the testicles as a reversible male contraceptive. This can last for six months. With a grant of $100,000 from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, researchers at the University of North Carolina will push ahead with more clinical trials, fine tuning, and safety tests."
What are you basing the "not enough resources" claim on? Energy? There's enough uranium in the oceans to power mankind for millions of years. Food? We already produce more food than we need. It breaks down because of economics and distribution. Even if there was a food shortage, it could be solved overnight by the simple act of reducing our meat consumption.
I'm always skeptical of people that project current resource consumption/production trends and pronounce that the end of civilization is 50 years away. People have been doing this in one form or another since the 1800s and we are still here.
I want peace on earth and goodwill toward man.
We are the United States Government! We don't do that sort of thing.
