Researchers from the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (Austria) report²⁶ that population aging has the potential for many positive impacts for society, including:

•Increased productivity: While population aging may lead to a decline in the labor force, expected increases in workers’ education levels may partly compensate through higher productivity.

•Good for the environment: Reduced consumptions of energy-intensive goods and lower carbon dioxide emissions.

•Prolonged health: As people live longer, they generally also sta healthier longer. This study reports that the average German male in 2050 will spend 80% of his lifetime in good health, compared to 63% today.

•Enhanced quality of life: The relationship between leisure, work, and housework will change in the future, with leisure time increasing on-average.

The future for human longevity is promising. The professional members of the A4M lead the cutting-edge R&D efforts in human aging intervention. The A4M brings lab-to-market by applying such discoveries in the clinical setting. We have the here-and-now answers in our hands today, and the 26,000-plus physician, scientist, and health practitioner members of the A4M engage them to help hundreds of thousands of patients to enjoy prolonged quality – and quantity, of life.
