Let's be honest. A vast majority of global climate change is due to industrial activities by first world countries (since the start of the industrial revolution). Meanwhile a majority of the negative effects are felt mainly by middle and lower income countries in Asia and Africa.

That’s… not something I would associate with my own children. Just teach them about the importance of the environment.

It's 100% a factor in deciding whether or not to have kids. Why bring children into a world that my generation is struggling immensely in and the climate is making things exponentially worse and politicians aren't doing anything to fight it.

You say nobody is doing anything about it, but the carbon output of the United States has been declining at a decent rate in recent years.

Source? Corporations, celebrities and billionaires have more carbon output and damage to the environment than you or I.
