Moonbattery in the U.K: "The worst thing that you or I can do for the planet is to have children"

From the U.K. Guardian: Fewer British babies would mean a fairer planet.

The worst thing that you or I can do for the planet is to have children. If they behave as the average person in the rich world does now, they will emit some 11 tonnes of CO every year of their lives. In their turn, they are likely to have more carbon-emitting children who will make an even bigger mess. If Britain is to meet the government's target of an 80% reduction in our emissions by 2050, we need to start reversing our rising rate of population growth immediately.

And if that makes sense, why not start cutting population everywhere? Are condoms not the greenest technology of all?

Actually, if you ask a true ghoul, it would be abortion, not condoms. In fact, scratch abortion, just cull all humans without discriminating based on anything other than productivity

That’s right - keep the unproductive alive and kill off the productive:

By today’s standards, a cull of Australians or Americans would be at least 60 times as productive as one of Bangladeshis.

Some standards. All this to fight a problem that doesn’t exist. What are the chances you think that people like this would accept an email with data showing cooling, not warming, for the last 11 years?
