The statistics are staggering when comparing children’s footprints across the globe, which causes many environmentalists to suggest that not having children may be the single most important thing you do for the environment. As a mother of two, this is a hard pill to swallow, and I try to convince myself that my children will be part of the solution since they are raised with green family values.

Sad but true
The more people on the planet, the more products we make, the less forests and wetlands we will have left... People are living longer and longer. Then when they die, we bury them in the lands we could be using to grow food or build homes. So until we start letting old people die when they're supposed to and then cremating them, we should probably at least stick to a one child limit.
