Alistair Currie, head of campaigns and communications at the U.K.-based charity Population Matters, said choosing to have fewer or no children is essential to ensuring people have a "decent living" on the planet in 50 years' time.
Sasano is part of the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement or Vhemt that believes in"refraining" from reproduction. Katharine Hayhoe, an atmospheric scientist and professor of political science at Texas Tech University, said individual decisions matter in the fight against climate change as much as collective action on things like carbon pricing and the Paris agreement.
"If the entire world were like Zambia we would not really have much of a problem," she said."If the entire world was filled with people with the carbon footprint of the average Canadian though, we would have a huge problem."Hayhoe said she knows people who've decided not to have children because of the environment.

‘This must change’: Canada has failed to effectively curtail climate change, environment watchdog says'This must change': Canada has failed to effectively curtail climate change, environment watchdog says It isn't us causing climate change. It is China and India. Canada can't do much more so stay out of our pockets! The headline doesn't quite make sense. Canada can, on its own curtail its emissions. It cannot curtail climate change per se, because it is an individual actor - and that's not what the environment watchdog said. Spot on. Rising emissions are unacceptable this day and age.

Grim Outlook For Canada In Latest Climate Change ReportCanada is warming at the twice the rate of the rest of the world, a new report has revealed. Experts believe that if emissions are not reduced on a global scale, fresh drinking water will become scarcer, parts of the Arctic will remain ice-free for prolonged periods and extreme temperatures will become dramatically more common. Hmm... Could it have anything to do with the pollution that is carried from other countries? Like maybe some of the countries that don't give two hoots about global warming? It's a GLOBAL issue. 🧐🤨😷 Here is a real northern Temperature from Whitehorse on April 04 2019 Are you saying temperature increases are an anomaly? Nice doom and gloom picture by the way

Climate documentaries aim to create change, not preach to the convertedClimate change documentary 'Living in the Future's Past,' produced and narrated by Jeff Bridges, deliberately avoids heaping guilt upon viewers or hammering them with warnings of impending doom, the 'Big Lebowski' star said. Who listens to Hollywood? Yeah, if there's one thing that's going to make me care about an issue, it's more finger-wagging from Hollywood. 🙄 Maybe Jeff could start in his own backyard !!

Throngs of people protest at Ontario legislature against Ford government’s changes to education systemPCs have come under fire for recent changes including increasing class sizes, making students take more online courses and overhauling the province’s autism program Someone needs to remind Ford that yesterday is gone and we can't erase it but tomorrow isn't. Education, health and the environment are issues that speak to the next generation and one that needs to be taken seriously. You have to give the Ontario NDP credit When it comes to organizing and supporting sign printers they have it down to a science To have uneducated leaders like Ford and Thompson illustrates how Ontarians will listen to rhetoric instead of what is important. You want to save money stop making patronage appointments, handing out corporate welfare and funding a religious education system
