"I love my children very much, but I do regret my choice to get married and have children. It's not just because the marriage ended disastrously, it's that I think the world needs fewer people in it, not more. Luke " Would you have chosen to have less children or non at all? | |||

"Been chatting to my dad and the size of families came up. He himself coming from a large family with 11 kids, which was not unusual in his day. We also got onto talking about the sad state of environment. I was curious as to your thoughts. Should we be having fewer children for the sake of the planet? " No. | |||

Fewer children should (if all countries produce fewer) mean lower population and thus less environmental impact. | |||

Contraceptive and education "  Indeed. Education and contraception as part of an overall increase in health care provision will help create the more stable and benign circumstances necessary to reduce birth rate. Anyone who has spent any time working in extension in developing countries knows that reduced child mortality results in lower birth rate and population stabilization... and education, women's in particular, is central to this. | |||

The planet cannot sustain it for much longer. But the biggest problem with climate change is so simple to cure. Stop the destruction of greenery, and plant a billion trees. Greenery takes in carbon dioxide and in exchange gives out oxygen. It's a no brainer. X | |||

I think we are in times of alert and danger when comes to climate changes , as the ice is melting we fast get concerned about the ocean rising and how dangerous is for most of the population as most people in this planet lives relatively near of the sea , but there's other dangers as the rotation of Earth and the cause of more warming | |||

"I don’t think that matters at the moment Rich people and big companies afe responsible for 80% of the damage done. Telling a couple on 35k a year they can only have 1 child won’t do shit. We need to hold the biggest polluters liable. We need to invest in better energy tech and start looking towards nuclear power as a main source " I think you are missing an important factor here. Those big companies only produce pollution/CO2 because there is a market for their products. Reduce the population and this reduces demand so these big polluters reduce output. There is a great deal technology can do to reduce the carbon footprint of products we buy but that will only ever achieve a small reduction. Not making the stuff in the first place had by far the largest impact. Fewer peyote means less land needed for food production, less food shipped all over the globe, less school runs, less new clothes every 10 minutes coz the little buggers wreck out grow out of everything within an hour of getting it etc etc. I agree, most Western countries don't have anything like the population growth of poorer nations but this is offset by the fact that a child born in the UK will have a significantly higher carbon footprint than one born in say Bangladesh. Big polluters won't change unless they're made to. This change can be forced by legislation or market pressure. Blaming the companies is a cop out, they only produce what we as consumers demand. If everyone outside of China for example stopped buying cheap Chinese products and paid the cost of those manufactured in a country with decent welfare and environmental standards then the massive amount of pollution coming from China would be slashed Mr | |||

I walk and use public transport What more could you do?" Less heating, more sustainable purchase choices, more activism. There's always more - it's a balancing act, as with all things in life. | |||
