Someone asked me yesterday: is having children (in the UK) bad for the planet? In 2017, having one fewer child was reported as being the best thing you could do for the climate; ahead of avoiding driving, flying and non-plant-based food. https://t.co/3eMJ

Look out, Hardin and Malthus; maybe it's not absolute numbers of people the #overpopulation debate should focus on, but where those people are born. According to Wynes, having 1 fewer kid in the US can save 120 tons of #CO2 equivalent per year! #SocEcoSys

Lisäisin näin joulun alla: Kuluta ja osta vähemmän! Tee harkittuja ostopäätöksiä ja suosi kotimaista.

Tuntuu, että nyt olisi taas hyvä hetki pohtia yksilön mahdollisuuksia vaikuttaa ilmastonmuutoksen hillintään. Vaikuttavimmat teot: 1. Minimoi lapsiluku 2. Vältä yksityisautoilua 3. Vältä lentomatkustamista 4. Noudata kasvispainotteista ruokavaliota https

FYI, average per-capita emissions of greenhouse gases United States (16.4 tCO2/year) per capita in 2016. *Need to cut 1.2 tCO2 every year (Cut 8% per year until it's 0 emissions). Australia (16.3 tCO2) Canada (13.5 tCO2), European Union (6.7 tCO2)

We like Thunberg's results focus: Worse case triggered at 340 Gigatons emitted; 42 Gigatons/year is current rate. Gone in 7 years, the ability to stay within 1.5C target. have 1 less child=58 tonnes CO2 live car-free=2.8 no planes=1.6 eat plants=0.8 http

Must read article on top personal actions to reduce greenhouse gas emmissions vs promotion of lower impact actions. Elephant in the room... population growth (24X larger impact than 2nd action, live car-free), with ZERO mentions in the literature review.

@emrobSci Because people have LITERALLY NO IDEA which actions are most effective (see the survey results above or https://t.co/Rj94Tbs6na), doing a hopelessly ineffective one stops them doing something actually useful.
