Climate change: Causing people to reconsider having children?

[alarimer]

19. Climate change solutions are going to require changing human behavior.

And that may include reducing the human population. I suspect that might be done for us, through natural disasters or disease.

But it will have to include reducing the use of vehicles for personal transportation and requiring greater density of housing. No more single family homes, which leads to urban sprawl, miles of ugly asphalt, too much driving by individuals.

Americans, in particular, are going to resist. We think it's our god-given right to own a car and drive wherever we please, whenever we please. That will have to stop. But it won't.

I honestly think we are just doomed, so people should do whatever they want. There's really no point educating anyone. They won't listen because it requires drastic changes to lifestyles, which no one is willing (or able, even) to do. Honestly at this point I don't care. Our heads are so buried in the sand they will never come out. It's far too late for any changes to have a positive effect.
