The people in those continent's produce a very very small amount of greenhouse emissions despite their massive population. China, and the US with less than 25% of the world population produce almost half of all greenhouse gasses.
Perhaps that's because Obama told them they couldn't all have big houses with air conditioning .
I can support sterilization for AOC and her supporters. We dont need people that dumb reproducing.. the world would become the real life version of Idiocracy.
Not Sure(/drumroll) if that is art imitating real life or real life imitating art.

The crazy thing is, is she's Right! The human population has quadrupled in 100 years the biggest reason for climate change. When you look at how much we consume every child for 80 years thats an insane amount of waste. I think what she should've said is couple's should have no more than two kids.
Then I guess no one should have health care...that way the population will naturally reduce...RIGHT?
For the record, I'm fine with Cortez and anyone who thinks like Cortez, to refrain from reproducing. I just wish her parents would had gotten ahead of all this.
I adore my children and do not regret having raised any of them. Even so, when one of them expressed doubts about whether or not to have children and another just flat out decided parenthood was not her future, I understood their reasoning and expressed my support for whatever path they follow. I get it. I really do.
Was their reasoning because the world is going to basically end in twelve years? I remember growing up thinking the world was going to end from nuclear war and not wanting to have children, and my mom told me every generation thinks the world is going to end in their lifetime. It really brought me back down to earth because it’s true. They’ve been making outrageous predictions about climate disaster since the ‘70s. We should be seeing mass famines and no snow and coastal cities under water by now...if their computer model predictions ever panned out. Instead we have countries developing and more people being brought out of poverty and starvation than at any point in history. The only people who are starving are under policies people like AOC want to bring here.
I think they’re scared, Katy, and I remember the feeling well. I had two young children and was heavily pregnant with my third when the September 11th attacks happened. That was a terrifying time, and had I not already had children, I might have decided against becoming a parent too. Climate change or not, my kids’ reasons are their reasons, and I will respect their choices.
