As his peer-reviewed study puts it, “Pharmacologically induced altruism and empathy could increase the likelihood that we adopt the necessary behavioral and market solutions for curbing climate change.” He emphasises there would be no coercion. The drugs would merely help those who want to be climate-friendly behaviour but lack the willpower.

Climate Depot Round Up: Flashback 2012: Meet Man Who Wants to Engineer a Master Climate Race?! NYU Prof. Matthew Liao: Humans genetically engineered to combat global warming — ‘Pharmacological enhancement’

Liao: 'The stuff that we looked at are things we currently already can do. So they are not meant to be very farfetched scenarios. They are meant to be realistic. -- 'Screen for embryos that are expected to be shorter. Another possibility is you can get hormone treatments...We can use that technology to have smaller children'

Liao 'also said taking drugs like Ritalin to enhance cognition may help with the global population problem, since there's a link between cognitive ability and lower birthrate.'

Fmr. Harvard U. Physicist Dr. Lubos Motl Compares NYU Prof. Matthew Liao to Nazis: 'It only differs from the most perverse medical plans during Nazi era by one detail' -- 'Mr Liao and his thugs want to exterminate mankind as we know it'

'We shall argue that human engineering potentially offers an effective means of tackling climate change...the possibility of making humans smaller. Human ecological footprints are partly correlated with our size...a more speculative and controversial way of reducing adult height is to reduce birth weight...Pharmacological enhancement of altruism and empathy...could increase the likelihood that we adopt the necessary behavioural & market solutions for curbing climate change'

Motl: 'I am totally disgusted by this stuff and by the fact that NYU & Oxford harbor scumbags...It only differs from the most perverse medical plans during the Nazi era by one detail: the Nazis at least wanted to create a race that had some qualities according to some rather sane criteria (well, in some cases, at least). Instead, Mr Liao and his thugs want to exterminate the mankind as we know it and create a sea of short stinky junk losers similar to themselves'

Be Afraid, Very Afraid! Prof. Liao wants to drug the public to make them more compliant with his ideology. 'Pharmacological enhancement': 'Test subjects given the posocial hormone oxytocin were more willing to share money with strangers...Also, a noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor increased social engagement and cooperation'

'Liao's effort to change history, whatever the motivation or lack of underlying knowledge, cannot be abided...It is simply the publication of an academic paper that presages the death of science, and indeed the death of reason, in the West'
