Environmentalist Chris Packham urges people to consider having fewer children

Chris Packham warned consumption is putting increasing pressure on planet. He tackles the topic in his new documentary 7.7billion people and counting. Told Good Morning Britain viewers to consider the size of their families.

 

Thank you for your comment. Your comment will be published after being reviewed.

People living in third world countries like Africa and The Middle East are uneducated in birth control and who’s archaic religious beliefs encourage them to have large families so they can ascend to heaven

It’s 2020 people , the planet can’t handle this many people and there is no need for it, there should be a world wide cap on children.

Wish his parents had thought the same, wanker.

Oh oh someone left the box open again

Looks like he might talking to the wrong population..

One child per family and no fertility treatments!!

sorry forgot to mention catholics they breed at a fair number

tell the muslim and asians to put a sock on it .no good preaching to the mainstream ,besides you can not afford loads of kids unless you on benefits and the government pays the bill.check ethnic diversity of newborns in the uk over the last 15 yrs.

Someone can have my spot if they want.

Totally agree.

Or fewer migrants. What's the difference.

Yeah Chris thanks for your advise!

I am totally fed up of being preached to by the likes of this guy!

Just because he can’t get it up doesn’t mean I can’t....

Now you tell me

An effective more forward but don't start with the indigenous Europeans including Brits -have a chat with those cultures which eschew birth control and encourage progeny. A good start would be to discuss it with the Pope and leaders of Islam.

We need to plant or trees and stop cutting out mother earths lungs ( rain forest )

This is the dumbest thing ever said...

Seems like a no brainer. Nobody needs or should even want more than 3/4.

OK I’ll stop. Mind you I am in my 70’s !

Stop having kid and get more older People.

someone finally gets the point

Tell that to the Africans and the Pope.

Ironically people who suggest this usually want open borders

Revolution 2o28

Tell it the Muslims. The west has had this crap for decades.

what he really means is white kids because he would not dare say this to our asian friends

He is right.

He’ll be saying Kill all the Panda’s next!...

Why don't you travel to the middle east & countries where people have more than 2 children to stop them

Stop all foreign aid

I’m a 3x granny but I PROMISE not to have any more children! There you go...

Fewer children? From where does he instead expect to find the future workforce, producing & paying taxes to keep Britain afloat? Absurd!

Fewer white children while the coloured Muslim invasion continues.the future of UK is coffee coloured less whiteness seems favoured.christianity replaced by the terror of Islam.

Do you think our muslim friends would listen to you ChrisGPackham

Gotta keep that population down, which is why we I port thousands of immigrants and let them have as many kids as they want. Flawless logic.

Ask the Asians, they are the ones breeding like rabbits

Why is it ok for people such as Chris Packham to suggest people having fewer children but it’s not ok for others to suggest that extreme environmentalists participate in voluntary suicide to deal with worlds over-population?

Too bad his parents didn't think that way.

Is he talking to the UK public and ignoring Africa & Asia?

🙄

Past: Let's save the planet so we have something to pass to the next generation. Present: stop. Having kids to save the planet. Future: the planet fine. No fucker Lives on it!!

Indeed

WickedCricket 👍👍

I dont think hes thought this through...

WickedCricket We have to reduce the world population from 7.7billion to 3.5. All v well trying to preserve wildlife but habit loss is their biggest enemy, not to mention population & water quality. We need to change our life style WWF

Stick to wanking off Badgers Chris.

Has he tried spreading his wisdom in Africa ?

I wish his parents did...

Who would you like to not have kids Caucasians are not having hardly any...they have dogs. You go tell the Islamic people to not have 12 kids or who ever else is over populating the earth. You go and spread the word about birth control. White society knows already.

Maybe if it was said by Greta people would agree.

There used to be a 1 or 2 child policy in China.

That's fine till a dip in the birth rate and then problems can arise.

But they won't. Some of them will keep on having children so they don't have to go out and work, or they're just slags.

I agree. Anyone want one of mine?

Tell the Muslims and other third worlders.....

Go tell the Chinese, we are not the problem

He means less white ones I think...

“Hey western people, stop having kids, even though you are currently below the replacement level birth rate. We want to replace you with immigrants that come from places we would never dream of telling to stop having kids, even though they have waaaaaaay more than you.”

Does dear Chris have many children himself? Asking for a friend...

He should address India and China where the majority of the world's population are contained. In fact, he should travel to India and China and lecture them on having fewer children.

You & your showbiz pals should consider stopping all private jet flights first ChrisGPackham then introduce birth control to ALL countries, then stop ALL boats & cruise ships from dumping all their waste straight into the sea to save the fuel of carrying it home ToNameAFew

FRO

Good programme. If I was younger there would be no way I would decide to bring a child into this world. But that’s me. I am a wildlife natural world save all species it’s their world to human being Tks Chris

He should go to Somalia and pass on his opinion.

People will always put their own selfish needs before everything else , the planet is finished , it’s what they deserve.

How do we square on one hand 'have less kids for the sake of the earth' with 'we need to import hundreds of thousands of generally unproductive people for demographic reasons.' There's a malevolent agenda here.

Environmentalist with 10 vacuums? All the cobalt going into them and the carbon footprint manufacturing them FFS Hypocrisy is rife.

gorbalsgoebbels No chance of that in Scotland when Sturgeon is giving people £600 for a first child and £400 for others. So all the dirty layabouts and refugees will be breeding like rabbits.

Most of Europe barely gets over the replacement rate, India has more than doubled in 40 years... he can take his argument to Asia, Middle East & Africa where the population is soaring, no-one will listen to a word he says though.

Yep, couldn't agree more.

White European population has peaked and is in decline. Stop immigration to lower Europe’s population

Does he mean China and Africa?

White people are the smallest minority in the world. Tell it to the Indians, the Chinese. Fuck

No

Take your message to India, China and Africa, then.

Sigh...🥺

Sounds so dire and nobel. So,if intelligent,educated,conscientious people stop haveing kids, who do you think will keep having kids? Who do you think those kids will vote for? In the last 50yrs fertility rates have already dropped 31% foreign & 33% US. Somethings missing. Think

I actually have argued this for years but the minute Packham says it I want to disagree. Maybe he's doing more harm than good?

Mioewing Does that include the immigrant community Chris or just whitey. Why can't these slebs just do what they are good at and stop preaching to the plebs. I'm sick of it and I don't give a damn about your political views. Next time your on tv I will just switch off.

He has no kids...

I had one child its more than enough my idea if hell a large family.

tinkernurse If only his parents had thought of that first

Or stop illegal immigration

What would you expect from a gay man

Maybe Chris’s parents should of thought about that

People should be encouraged to have them later as well.

Good positive important and clear statement

Stop having losers liberals and commies is a better idea!

Chris Packham should be drug tested.

Why? All we need to do is curb immigration. Sorted!

And the same people preaching that are preaching for mass immigration because we don't have enough. We need more kids, they need less. Simple as that.

He's right. Earth is full already

He’s right, especially the skint ones ..

Shouldn’t he be telling the Chinese and India this eco shite

The Left: “Stop having children, we’re overpopulated!” Also the Left: “We need mass immigration of unskilled workers from Sub-Saharan Africa and the Asian Sub-Continent because we’ve got an ageing population and not enough young people.”

Well don't tell us over here. Sod off to the country with 6+births per couple and make your way down the list..

Maybe all the 2nd- and 3rd-world economic migrants — oops, I mean “”refugees”” — flooding our countries could be required to sign guarantees that they will have no more than 2 kids per couple. Y’know... to help kerb Global Warming and all that. DiversityIsOurStrength

How about some of those who are born already?

Piss off to africa and tell them to stop having kids

So every family should get rid of at least one child!

Only applies if you’re white though.

EXACTLY why are people in a country like Bangladesh having so many kids when that will be the first country to go under water ClimateAction

tinkernurse Virtually the entire western world has a declining and aging population, maybe we should just all do ourselves in to make cunts like chris happy, it'll also give the east some more leeway in terms of emissions.

Maybr Chris should go abort himself. Since it looks like he passed on the opportunity

Then how else do the workshy get their benefits and council houses?

You first

Especially those white evil children.

NOW THAT YOU SAY THAT THEY WILL HAVE MORE CHILDREN THAN EVER BEFORE! WHEN HAVE YOU KNOWN THAT PEOPLE LISTEN TO WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE?

Send him to Africa.

He should spread his message in south Asia and Africa, little point preaching to countries with below replacement birth rates. If he's serious about the problem, that is.
