This just in: making the world a better place for a few at the expense of the many does not inspire people to want to bring new people into the world.
Good. We need fewer people.
We need about 75% fewer people. I'd rather that we hold the ecosystem together while we gradually depopulate by just not having as many children instead of having climate change kill us off by famine and drought.

As populations collapse, private childcare facilities are going to be less and less viable, and so the prospect of even being able to have kids, for those that want them, is going to rapidly fall on the government's ability and willingness to support families.
Which is why US Republicans are forcing birth at any cost. They don’t care about the child once it’s born. They only want to ensure their spawn have enough minions to keep said spawn in comfort.
Religion tells you to multiply endlessly because, some reason.
Science tells you maybe that's dumb for a whole lot of reasons.
God isn't real. Cellphones are. Science wins.
