Should We Be Having Kids In The Age Of Climate Change?

Your Damn Children are Killing the Planet

Hating people is not a new thing for central planners. Predictions of global catastrophe have been the central organizing principle of futurists and despots alike. Think Paul Ehrlich’s “The Population Bomb” or Margaret Sanger’s call for eugenics or Lester Brown’s “Full Planet, Empty Plate.” In her new book, Fossil Fuels: Exposing the Mad War on Energy, the Texas Public Policy Foundation’s Kathleen Hartnett White counters these claims with facts. “Not one of Ehrlich’s many predictions ever came true. Food supply per person has dramatically increased, while the rate of population growth has substantially declined in those developing countries most contributing to the rapid increase since 1950.”
