Developed countries aren't having enough children. We need to provide families with children more assistance, not less. Raising children deserves to be seen as a job because it provides value to society. I say that as a person without children who hopes to never have any.

But not having children reduces fossil fuel consumption the most, and that is the goal of the tax, is it not?
Reducing capitas will cause a much quicker and effective change than reducing per capita consumption.

The goal of the tax is to force people the internalize the externalities caused by their consumption.
