    Jesus wept.

    No, I don’t have children. In large part because I don’t think my generation has a future, let alone the next.

    But one last time (maybe you’ll read it this time rather than just intentionally plugging your ears to be smug over whatever you are on): Even if we ignore that every single benefit associated with “have fewer kids” is something that can and should be done right now. Those metrics are based on lifetime CO2 production by the child. So you MAYBE are making a difference in 20 or 40 years. But you are doing jack all in the timeframe where… we probably still can’t stop the upcoming disaster. But we can at least try.
