  • Summary

  • What happens when living to 100—or beyond—becomes the norm?

    In this episode, we explore the societal, ethical, and environmental ripple effects of extended lifespans.


    From Japan’s aging population to lessons from the Blue Zones, we uncover how longer lives challenge our systems and redefine concepts like retirement, caregiving, and sustainability.


    Can longevity science benefit everyone, or will it deepen inequalities? How do we ensure extended lifespans enrich humanity, rather than strain our planet? A thought-provoking look at how science, policy, and culture must converge to shape a future where longer lives mean better lives.
