From Paleolithic caves to Mesopotamian myths, the ibex stood for fertility, rain, and the stars. A new study traces how this mountain goat became a timeless symbol in art and ritual. #Archaeology #Symbolism #Prehistory #Fertility #AncientArt https://www.anthropology.net/p/the-ibex-and-the-moon-how-a-mountain
The Ibex and the Moon: How a Mountain Goat Shaped Fertility Myths in the Ancient Near East

From Paleolithic rock art to Mesopotamian gods, the ibex carried the weight of life, rain, and the stars.

"[M]any researchers are recommending a shift in focus from reversal to resilience. They see room for optimism. Even if countries can only slow the decline, that should buy them time to prepare for future demographic shifts. Ultimately, scientists say, fertility rates that are low, but not too low, could have some benefits."

Is collapsing fertility really the end of the world?

Steep population declines in most countries are expected to have negative impacts over the next several generations, but adaptation is possible.

Conclusion by the host:

"Today, San Francisco's startup culture has become a lot like New York's financial culture, but with a more casual dress code.
But in #Japan, that spirit of innovation as a force for good is still strong.
Both founders and VCs want to make a lot of money, of course, but most also genuinely want to make the world at least a little bit better as they do so."

Interesting.

A new ovarian cell creation process is developed by this Japanese company Dioseve and they can skip clinical trials because the product is not considered a medicine.

This new technology can reduce more than 80% of hormone injection in an IVF process.

"Action must be taken to curb the use of #plastic additives linked to plummeting #sperm counts, a leading reproductive scientist has warned, as splits over #chemical regulation contributed to the collapse of a crucial #treaty on plastic #pollution. Across the world, sperm counts have been declining at a rate of about 1% a year for the past 50 years, & #human #fertility has been diminishing at a similar rate, studies have shown."

Another night of bad sleep because I can't stop thinking of how the #EU is trying to turn an open and democratic society into a surveillance dystopia with the #ChatControl and #DigitalServicesAct (EU's version of the #OnlineSafetyAct).

At the same time, the politicians are wondering why the #fertility numbers are declining and "we need to do something about it". Maybe try NOT making the world an even darker and dystopian place to bring a child into?... 🤦‍♂️

An observation: #sciencefiction #scifi #speculativefiction etc. with large human population in the future has inadvertently dated itself. The #fertility #rate has decreased with no sign of turn-around. The global estimates of future #population assume that the fertility rate will magically go up in the near future. Not to mention that #poverty due to lack of #redistribution worsens health outcomes. And #climatechange
