1 in 4 Childless Adults Say Climate Change Has Factored Into Their Reproductive Decisions
Morning Consult ^ | 09 28 2020 | LISA MARTINE JENKINS

Posted on 09/28/2020 12:52:44 PM PDT by yesthatjallen

11% of childless adults say climate change is a “major reason” they don’t currently have children, while 15% say it is a “minor reason.”

Childless Hispanic adults are especially likely to say climate change has factored into their reproductive decisions, at 41%.

For some childless adults, climate change looms large when they consider whether or not to reproduce. According to recent Morning Consult data, 11 percent of that group say climate change is a “major reason” they do not currently have children, and 15 percent say it plays a minor role.

While climate change was among the least-cited reasons for those who do not currently have children (behind financial, political and career concerns, among others), the fact that it comes to mind for a quarter of respondents underscores the fact that its impacts are becoming increasingly visible to the public.

Childless Hispanic respondents were especially likely to say their concern for climate change has impacted their plans, with 41 percent saying it is a major or minor reason they don’t have children. Thirty percent of Black respondents and 23 percent of whites said the same.

This demographic breakdown largely mirrors responses to another poll asking respondents how much of a role climate change has played in recent natural disasters; Black and Hispanic respondents to that survey were especially likely to say climate change contributed substantially to events like the ongoing wildfires scorching the West Coast.

That’s a really fun statistic. Darwin’s theory in action. Best they hold off reproducing if they are so factually challenged & are unable to fact check.

Anyone left of center I prefer not reproduce. Self-limits and thins the herd.

A voluntary thinning of the gene pool in this case, I think is warranted.

So, if it wasn’t silly climate change, they would find another excuse. They just don’t want to change their lifestyle to accommodate children. And since that is their desire, it is a good thing they do not have children.

“So Karen, will you and Darwin have children?”
