This is why we need less humans on this planet. No one says that, because having as many kids as you like seems to be considered a basic human right. But imagine Earth with a stable 10% of our current population. Clean, abundant, and without the catastrophic extinction event already underway.
So you're taking steps and not having children then?

Of course, that’s not to say that it’s impossible to have too many people, or even that decreasing the likelihood of human extinction is necessarily one of the most important goals.

That, or an endless succession of airborne diseases that keeps the population isolating itself .

A case can also be made that those who want the least children for sustainability reasons should try to have more children who grow up to make a compounding difference in the future.
Perhaps I am being very skeptical, but I am failing to understand how three months of lockdown all the sudden eliminates decades of pollution. Something does not add uphere.
Mostly a severe reduction in air travel (airplane fuel is really really really bad for the environment)

Hmm, I feel like lots of people say that, because overpopulation has been a large topic of discussion and concern for like 40 years.
10% seems pretty extreme, though.
