AGING :Blessing or In-productivity

Aging : Blessing or In productivity

Don’t know much about this field , but from the little knowledge i have earned this opinion. Life expectancy by definition its average life span of an individual of a country and its common expectation that one would feel good to have his nation’s life expectancy greater than others.

As per UN a country is regarded as aging if more than seven percent population of a country is above the age of 60. And higher the people in the above 60 age category , lower is their productivity and more care is needed for them, here this doesn’t mean that they are useless. It’s their experience and guidance that we need the most for our prosperous future but with the policy of one children per couple as per in china, there will be two elderly person per child by 2050. And overall productivity of an individual will sharply decline by then. Now with this pace and increased life expectancy after another 20 to 30 years this number increased to an alarming rate as more people fall under non-productive category.

In order to prevent us from that inevitable situation , one solution is computerization and mechanisation to improve the productivity. But this is not the only solution as human always require some sort of work to engage his/her mind. Here too, there need to have some concrete solution to this.

“Nothing comes as blessing only, every thing has another side”. Increased life expectancy is also a part of this nature and not to be overlooked , so its upon us that how we deal with this .
