Quick Glance: Reassessing the Impact of Children on the Planet
- In recent years, concern for the planet has led some people to decide not to have children. However, a 2017 study shows that this is not the most efficient way to reduce emissions.
- Emission reduction from additional children can be significantly minimized through government policies. Future generations could benefit from strict climate targets.
- Focusing on strong climate policies is more important than debating the impact of children on the planet. Political resistance is one of the biggest threats to effective climate actions.
- The personal decision to have a child should be viewed in relation to larger actors like governments and corporations in terms of emission reduction. An individual contribution can influence long-term emission goals.
