I have a better idea. Millenials should get 1-3 babies (median 2) because then mostly people mankind needs (sustainability aware people) get the babies, and teach them good ethics. Instead science deniers should not be convinced to vaccinate, so they and their surroundings die out mid term when corvid or the next pandemic reaches them.
Are you really suggesting that you want everyone with different political beliefs than yourself to all die?

#13So apparently it's not all Millennials but mostly millennials in industrialized countries who are fretting. Millennials in places which would suffer the brunt, if projections are correct, are having babies!
The more we breed, the more they die.

He’s one of the good people who can tell us the right way to do things. Never mind the 150k vaccine deaths.

Probably a good thing. It's industrial & post-industrial babies that produce most of the climatic impacts anyway. The carbon footprint of a western baby is several times higher than that of someone born in a developing country. The more we breed, the more they die.
Or, if being a developing country is "better" for climate change, would it make sense for industrialized countries to become "developing" countries?

Ooh hitchens is fun when his logic goes against theistic religion. Not so enjoyed when it works against the modern religion of scientism.

Because this is the angsty hand-wringing of people with enough time and money to actually sit and make up problems (not saying climate change is made up, just the idea that it’s the biggest worry when it comes to having a child).
Have you considered that people with time and money also might be better educated and have time to actually research and think things through?

#19Highly religious people like Mormons and Amish have 3 kids on average, same for highly religious societies in Africa and Asia. Fun times ahead. Ironically from a darwinian point of view religion is a great adaptation for fitness

The boomers didn't have babies because of Vietnam (at least once that didn't work for deferments), ecology, what have you. Then they did.
