I don't have to. Birth rates in the developed world are plummeting.
And unless I'm mistaken, you are the one trying to convince people right now.
Birth rates are plummeting to maintain what will probably be around 13 billion. That's wildly distinct from willful extinction.
I... What? You made a post saying people should do x, I responded. Yeah we're both trying to convince people of a thing, I'm not sure I see how that is actually relevant.
“[S]omeone has to to continue the species” —~~you, not me~~ someone else
I did not, in fact, say that.
Birthrates are not plummeting to zero, if thats what youre implying. As people get more educated, they tend to have fewer kids. No one is considering having "fewer" kids because of the childs lifetime GHG emissions
