Here is another benefit of an aging population


In a previous post I reported on a scientific study of Germany’s aging population. The researchers found that seniors contribute less to climate change and that they result in other positive changes in society.

Now the article below from the Washington Post blog citing the same study describes other benefits that increasing numbers of seniors bring. They spur innovation.

Why an aging population may be good for innovation

There is no reason that the increasing numbers of baby boomers have to be a burden on society. They might turn out to be a blessing in disguise.
