Watching the campaigns for Cancer Research UK on my TV gave me a bad feeling. "Together, we will beat cancer". If this were to happen, what would the impact be on the world?
For a moment, imagine that this dream came true through many billions spent into research. There is no longer cancer of any form existing in the world, due to this miracle of a discovery.
There could be a huge number of changes, from social issues such as overpopulation (in 2007, cancer was the cause of 13% of all deaths), to economic impacts (if there was no lung cancer, how many more people would smoke?)
Is it worth spending money on curing cancer if the end result could be so perilous?
On the other hand, as humans some feel that we have a duty to try and prolong our lifespans as much as possible. Maybe we could find ways to control the impacts of a cancerless world in the future.
