The solution is not to have children. Everything else is pissing in the wind.

Fully agreed. But harder to sell unfortunately :(

There are other fulfilling things to do with your life besides having kids. People need to realize this.

Yes. But you are arguing against lots of social programming, cultural expectations and religious backgrounds. It’s hard.

Until we colonize other planets, downsizing is the only way humanity will survive. Every other person just can’t be having tons of kids anymore.

One thing to note is that if everyone stops having children, it will create a demographic crisis with a lot of older people / pensioners not able to work and not a lot of working age people to support the aging population. Good for environment ofc but quite bad for the remainder of population.
