Suicide is traumatic. Not having children is not. Your point is also somewhat incorrect. By committing suicide you only reduce your carbon footprint by however many years you have left to live. Not having a child however prevents a whole lifetime of carbon emissions. Lifespans are increasing so that's another factor to account for.

Not having a child however With very few exceptions, a choice of dying today means someone will not beget any progeny on any subsequent day. So no, unless you are suggesting some kind of death by snoo-snoo or tube-baby-farm scenario, shuffling off this mortal coil already encompasses the "no further children" choice and broadens the human-removing even further.
