Evolution will punish you

Be nice. Evolution will punish you if you’re mean and selfish, says study

Selfish people have short-term advantage, but co-operation and communication win out in the long term

Why you SHOULD give away your last chocolate: Selfish people 'will eventually die out' because evolution favours cooperation

  • Selfishness offers only short-term success compared with teamwork
  • Scientists believe evolution will eventually kill off selfish people
  • Theory contradicts previously held notion that selfishness helps evolution
