your thinking on this is so muddled and contradictory, it's almost funny.
on the one hand, my personal use of buildings and transport systems that are shared with 100,000s or even 1,000,000s of other people on a frequent basis means i should take a huge share of blame for their construction costs and running costs. my tiny, fractional share is a huge moral burden, apparently.
on the other hand, we need to get rid of 2/3rds of the earth's population. lmao. the standard of living you expect as your natural god-given right should be the golden measure with which to judge all the rest of humanity either worthy or lacking. the problem isn't your expectation of a nice suburban spread, a manicured lawn, a boy's rally car, etc: it's that there's far too many indians, who don't own cars and who subsist on lentils and local produce, in the world.
you seem very good at deflecting away from your own carbon-intensive lifestyle to people who lead comparatively carbon-free lifestyles. i guess it's easier to declare that everyone in other countries should stop having children than it is to examine your own position.
