90. The Hedonistic Imperative
Outlines how nanotechnology and genetic engineering will eradicate aversive experience in all sentient life - and why this is both instrumentally rational and ethically mandatory.
http://www.hedweb.com
The Hedonistic Imperative outlines how genetic engineering and nanotechnology will abolish suffering in all sentient life. The abolitionist project is hugely ambitious but technically feasible. It is also instrumentally rational and morally urgent. The metabolic pathways of pain and malaise evolved because they served the fitness of our genes in the ancestral environment. They will be replaced by a different sort of neural architecture - a motivational system based on heritable gradients of bliss. States of sublime well-being are destined to become the genetically pre-programmed norm of mental health. It is predicted that the world's last unpleasant experience will be a precisely dateable event. Two hundred years ago, powerful synthetic pain-killers and surgical anesthetics were unknown. The notion that physical pain could be banished from most people's lives would have seemed absurd. Today most of us in the technically advanced nations take its routine absence for granted. The prospect that what we describe as psychological pain, too, could ever be banished is equally counter-intuitive. The feasibility of its abolition turns its deliberate retention into an issue of social policy and ethical choice.

Genetic Engineering
Michael Faraday Modern molecular genetics has revolutionized medicine and our knowledge of ourselves. As a scientist working on the genetics of aging , I have a duty to help make the general public aware of the power and limitations of modern genetics. I also like to dream about the most revolutionary, and often most controversial, applications of genetic engineering.
Introduction
Since Mendel's experiments on heredity and the identification of the DNA as the genetic material, we started to know how and why we are like we are we, started to understand more about how our bodies work. The DNA contains genes, passed to us in roughly equal proportions from our parents, that are like the instructions of a computer program running within us, inside our every cell. The whole program, the complete DNA, makes up the genome, which contains not only all genes but even large empty areas that are basically junk. Genes by and large encode proteins, which are the building blocks of our bodies. Differences in genes determine, for instance, eye color and susceptibility to certain diseases. To a large degree we are what our genes code us to be. The DNA is a molecular chain physically located in chromosomes, structures present in the nucleus of cells. Genes are encoded by the DNA and specify how and when to build proteins which then act as molecular machines. These molecular machines interact in complex networks to perform most vital functions in cells. The communities of cells, through complex interactions, then give rise to animals, including human beings. Picture from

Biological Russian roulette
This site has been established to suppport discussions about genetic engineering and to provide information intelligible to non scientists.
At present decisions are being taken which are influencing society and environment worldwide:
New crops are being planted and products derived from them are being sold fraudulently (without labels and risk information) on the world market. Huge areas are being invaded by newly designed organisms: organism whose long term effects to eco systems are unknown and which can never be brought back if there are adverse effects.
Patent laws are being issued making plants, animals and parts of the human body the property of single persons and companies.
The new colonization of the nature and the human body isn't an issue restricted to scientists and multinational companies.

Food
Human civilization has its roots in the early domestication of plants and animals nearly 10,000 years ago. Success in this endeavor led to drastic changes in how and where human beings lived; agriculture led humans from a nomadic existence to one based in permanent and semi-permanent settlements. It even changed how humans interacted with one another and how they interacted with the Earth. The unprecedented growth in global population that occurred in the 20th century was made possible by the remarkable advances in agriculture, public health, and technology. The Green Revolution brought high-yield crops and advanced growing techniques to developing countries, improving nutrition and health in most parts of the world. Continued growth, however, will likely require more land to plant and water for irrigation, increasing pressure on habitats and natural resources. Advanced agricultural methods have made it possible to grow more food on fewer acres of land, permitting some land to be returned to forest and other natural states. Yet, there are costs associated with high-yield methods, including a heavy reliance on pesticides and fertilizers. Runoff from agricultural lands affects the water quality of lakes and rivers. Erosion continues to be a serious environmental problem in the absence of preventative measures. And, irrigation ? required in many parts of the world ? can be a significant drain on water supplies in arid areas and, if improperly managed, can lead to a buildup of salt deposits, which can severely degrade soil quality.
