Save the Planet One Condom at a Time

With Earth Day right around the corner, I thought some of you would enjoy this feature on childfree couples and individuals who decided not to procreate largely for environmental reasons.

Seeing population at the core of environmental issues, Kaufman decided 10 years ago to forgo having children.

“We can put up all the windmills we want,” he says. “If we can’t stop reproducing at 70 million a year, nothing’s going to prevent us from overwhelming the planet.”

The current global population is just over 6.5 billion. The U.N. Population Division expects the number of people to grow to 9 billion by 2050.

Of course, there are many reasons for not having kids. But if you do make the choice, you can always feel good knowing that your lifestyle is earth-friendly.
