Man announces he will quit drinking by 2050
World News
A Sydney man
has set an ambitious target to phase out his alcohol consumption within the
next 29 years, as part of an impressive plan to improve his health.
The program
will see Greg Taylor, 73, continue to drink as normal for the foreseeable
future, before reducing consumption in 2049 when he turns 101. He has assured
friends it will not affect his drinking plans in the short or medium term.
Taylor said
it was important not to rush the switch to non-alcoholic beverages. “It’s not
realistic to transition to zero alcohol overnight. This requires a steady,
phased approach where nothing changes for at least two decades,” he said,
adding that he may need to make additional investments in beer consumption in
the short term, to make sure no night out is worse off.
Taylor will
also be able to bring forward drinking credits earned from the days he hasn’t
drunk over the past forty years, meaning the actual end date for consumption
may actually be 2060.
To assist
with the transition, Taylor has bought a second beer fridge which he describes
as the ‘capture and storage’ method.
