This would have happened with or without them. They introduced other problems, but we were already headed to climate collapse before this year.

And people say I'm somehow selfish or pathetic for not wanting to give any possible kids an undue burden, even assuming they are a white cis-male able-bodied person, the exact thing a fascist wants in this nation.
It's just foolish or genuinely spiteful to have kids in this time. Even if you can give them a good childhood, healthy, happy, nothing wrong with em at all, you can't fix the climate.

Lol, not mine. Good fucking luck to you chumps living below the arctic circle though!
No your kids will get anthrax and all the viruses that are now stuck in the permafrost and will revive once they are thawed.

Yeah but don't stop having kids because we need underpaid nursing home staff to work in the hell we made.
At least they won’t have to worry about not being able to afford a house…
But it would be super cool if our generation could pre-pay their spot in a vault

So, Blade Runner was a future documentary ? And then Blade Runner 2049?
The researchers note that their study is far from complete — they didn’t model climate change’s impacts on fertility, mortality or migration. This means that the effects of climate change in sparking mass migrations and resource wars were not accounted for in their analysis, and neither were the various tipping points our warming world is edging closer toward.
