      Why you shouldn't have kids: because you are short-sighted, selfish, and unwilling to allow anyone to be more important than yourself. https://twitter.com/Lauren_Southern/status/911304874549116928 …

      Out of curiosity, do you consider priests who don't have kids selfish?

      I think he's addressing these specific people, and more broadly the type of person who refers to human beings as a cancer on the planet.

      No, you are the only observable chance for life to extend beyond this one planet. It is unlikely, but you may be the universes only hope.

      shame so few of "them" have any notion of the fact that all this planet's life is doomed without profound HUMAN technological innovation.

      and slowing that innovation down in any way might be the straw that breaks the camels's back, prevents the interception of asteroid, etc.

      There is a non-zero probability that intelligence is a self eliminating trait of evolution that can take down an entire planets ecosystem.

      Yes, quite possibly. I'd still recommend trying not to let that happen tho or delaying it happening.

      It most certainly will not be from predation, pollution, or anthropogenic climate change. Those are primarily aesthetic changes.

          The fact that you find a world without extinctions to be aesthetically pleasing does not negate the fact that every species goes extinct.

          That you find pollution aesthetically displeasing does not negate the fact that a beach of broken bottles is indistinguishable from "sand".

          That you find 1200 ppm CO2 and 2 degrees warmer aesthetically displeasing does not change the fact it would increase the biosphere.
