Guardian: Earth is home to millions of species. Just one dominates it. Us. Our cleverness, our inventiveness and our activities have modified almost every part of our planet. In fact, we are having a profound impact on it. Indeed, our cleverness, our inventiveness and our activities are now the drivers of every global problem we face. And every one of these problems is accelerating as we continue to grow towards a global population of 10 billion. In fact, I believe we can rightly call the situation we're in...

Humans will be kept between life and death in the first suspended animation trials

2014-03-27 14:48:53| Extremetech

At a hospital in Pittsburgh, surgeons are now allowed to place patients into a state of suspended animation. If a patient arrives with a traumatic injury, and attempts to restart their heart have failed -- if they're on the doorstep of death -- they will have their blood replaced with a cold saline solution, which stops almost all cellular activity. At this point, the patient is clinically dead -- but if the doctors can fix the injury within a few hours, they can be returned to life from suspended animation by replacing the saline with blood.
