However, what's the point in caring? You don't have children then? That's the attitude that will likely lead to the demise of us long before the planet gives up.

The irony is it's the people with children who cause the most damage! As usual Doug Stanhope reveals the elephant in the room...

Here is the report he was referring to...

A study by statisticians at Oregon State University concluded that in the United States, the carbon legacy and greenhouse gas impact of an extra child is almost 20 times more important than some of the other environmentally sensitive practices people might employ their entire lives

I think it was actually Ice Age 2 - The Meltdown (from 2006?)

Why do I find it hard to watch a video of a bloke in a suit sitting on a garden chair inside drinking a beer and talking about climate change!?

I don't know, why do you?

Are you saying that drinking beer has more environmental impact than having children?
