Earlier quoted context omitted.
> Kids have a massive carbon footprint and are probably the worst thing a person in the first world can do to the environment. This is true in exactly the same broken sense of value “to the environment” that mass murder (especially of the young and rich) is the best thing one can do to the environment.
This is of course a pretty troll-y argument. Mass murder is massively wrong and unethical, procreation choices are at worst arguably defensible. (Unless you're a religious fanatic of the contraception=murder variety...)
