KAROL MARKOWICZ: The new anti-natal movement is cruel and hypocritical. “Children are our future. But maybe you shouldn’t have any. That’s been the confusing drumbeat coming from liberals lately: Kids are our precious hope, but they are also bad for the environment, and we should make fewer or none of them.” The upside: The people who listen to them will help reduce the prevalence of gullibility-genes in the pool.

Also: Why Baby Strikes Won’t Save the Planet: Economist Tyler Cowen has made the case that having more children is the best way to ensure that the human species will be able to deal with a climate crisis should one occur.

UPDATE: From the comments: “So the Greenies agree with the New Zealand shooter. Got it.” The WalMart shooter, too, I believe.
