Ah, got it. Yes, I was just countering the anecdotes against this idea with my own anecdote for it.

Thanks for clearing up the confusion.

Excellent. Thanks. I totally agree that I have a few friends who are like you: they're very concerned about the planet and that affects their childbearing plans. Me, that affects what I eat, but it didn't change my childbearing plans.

Having a child is the #1 thing one can do which is bad for the environment (impact), worse than driving a car, using airplane, or becoming a vegetarian.

However by dietary choice you can reduce the damage, and you can also reduce the damage by educating your child with good manners concerning the environment.
