    Basically as impactful to the world at large as choosing not to use plastic straws

    All of humanity is descended from individuals, so your moral relativism of "it’s personal choice’ is literally the first step towards everything bad that has ever happened

      It’s not a moral argument, it is an empirical one. Individual people choosing not to have kids will not solve anything if capitalism, the real source of waste and pollution, is not challenged. Individual people subsisting is not the source of pollution, it is the econmic system.
