The propaganda part: "By far the biggest ultimate impact is having one fewer child, which the researchers calculated equated to a reduction of 58 tonnes of CO2 for each year of a parent’s life." If you look into the source study: https://www.biologicaldiversity.org/programs/population_and_sustainability/pdfs/OSUCarbonStudy.pdf https://www.biologicaldiversity.org/programs/population_and_... Specifically at Figure 6, you'll note that those 58 tonnes refer to the peak of the "carbon legacy curve". As an environmentalist I'm indignant that such an association was ever drawn. For one: who says the next generation will have nearly the same carbon footprint? That's already not the case currently and the trend is clear.
