ON EXTINCTION What does it mean to die the ultimate death? with Melanie Challenger At The Kings Head on Thursday 3rd October 2019 at 7:00 pm Extinction isn't a single death but a collective death. It is a permanent death. We are living through strange times. From the horrors of the whaling industry to the melting ice caps of the Arctic, we've become an agent of extinction like an Ice Age, driving species of plants and other animals into this permanent death. At the same time, our thoughts have turned to the possibility of our own death. Now we have technologies that might reverse extinction, promising to bring back the forever lost. And some of us dream of enhancing humans so that we can escape the threat of our own extinction.
