Some baby-hating think-tank in Britain is urging parents not to have more than two kids. Why? Because it's bad for the environment. A child born in Britain will use more resources than a child born in Ethiopia or Bangladesh, ergo British people shouldn't have kids.
Clearly there's a priority problem here. First, this essentially says that the environment is more important than humanity. Second, the current fertility rate in Britain is only 1.87 births per mother, well below the 2.12 necessary for population stability. At that rate the only reason Britain's population is increasing is because of immigration.
Just more evidence that current European culture--and by extension Western culture--is necrotic.
