The setup
Almost 20 percent of American women end up going childfree, according to a new report by the Pew Research Center. In 2008, 18 percent of women reached ages 40 to 44 without having borne a child, compared to just 10 percent in 1976.
This makes the feminista envirowackos happy
A childfree life doesn’t have to be a bummer, The Washington Post helpfully points out:
Childless women are as happy as women who had children at typical ages, said Amy Pienta, a researcher at the University of Michigan who coauthored a study on the subject. “They are not any more depressed; their psychological well-being is just as high,” she said.
I could have told you that. And — bonus — our carbon footprints are lower too.
All in all, this report is good news — women are more free to choose how they want to live their lives, and, to the extent more of us are choosing not to have kids, the environment benefits in the process.
Interesting. The climahysterics keep telling us that AGW will kill the human race. What seems more likely is that having fewer and fewer children will do that for real. But, hey, the few children of bat guano crazy moonbat liberals there are, the better for the future of the human race.
The one true means of combating climate change is to emphasize the need for liberals to commit suicide. Thus, fewer humans, less CO2, less hot air. The rest of us could live in peace and not pay as much tax.

But, they want OUR children. That’s why they become teachers and put themselves in places where children are. They want to teach our children their own life view, and then send them home to “teach” us.
Teach are you also childless ?
