I have chosen to not have children. Environment concerns was not the only factor, but a significant one. I suspect that this choice is far better for the environment then anything listed in that article.

Someday, all the people that are left will be the descendants of the people who had kids.
Adopt, so that you're not contributing to population, but are contributing what makes you a responsible human to that future population.
Everyday, not someday, surely :)
I'd say for most people, abstaining from having children would rank as a much bigger sacrifice than switching to a fuel efficient car though. I suspect you didn't particularly want to have kids in the first place.
