yeah. most people choosing to not have kids is do to them seeing that if they had them they will have it worse than they did and us destroying the planet. Of course the persons comment is kinda stupid being that eventually. If we got to a low enough population. People would have kids. Humans are not going to go extinct do to not having children.

even during near extinctiin events the humanv population rebounded up. Our ancestors were not supposed to survife the height of our current Ice Age....they did anyways! Like just imagine how demoralizing it must have bbeen to only see ice and snow all day , barely any sun or greenery and your diet consisted oof the same cold resistant animals and plants almost all day everyday....but our ancestors were STILL popping out babies like crazy back then.

If the population is decreased by a large enough event and the planet is still intact , anyone who sees humsn extinction as a possibility is deranged or way too young to be thinkinfg about that or both lol
