Forget the stunt at the snooker. Forget the grandstanding at the Grand National. And forget the threats to disrupt the London Marathon this weekend. That’s nothing.
Because climate activists are doing something that will have far graver consequences than chucking a bit of orange powder around: they’re making our children terrified to have children of their own. [emphasis, links added]
Take Just Stop Oil’s Edred Whittingham, the cretin from The Crucible. Speaking to GB News, he declared that he’s opposed to having children “on moral grounds”.
It would be wrong, he explained, to bring children into the world when he “can’t guarantee there will be a habitable planet for them to grow up in”. To remain childless, therefore, “is the moral choice, given the circumstances we’re facing.”
But it’s not just fanatics like him who think like this. Millions of young people actually agree.
According to a global study of 10,000 people aged 16 to 25, an astonishing 39 percent said they were hesitant to have children one day because they’re so scared of climate change.
This is terrible. After all, if almost half our young people are too frightened to start families, there won’t be a civilization left to save.
Their fear isn’t just tragic, however. It’s also pathetic. The future may be fraught with danger, but then, the future always has been.
Say you were young during the Black Death, or the Blitz. Or, for that matter, at any point during the many millennia before the invention of penicillin, or electricity, or dentists.
Did all those generations of young people think, “We can’t possibly bring children into this hideous world? The future is simply too bleak”? No. We know they didn’t. Because if they had, we wouldn’t be here.
We need today’s young people to remember this. And whenever they forget, we should make them rewatch series two of The White Lotus.
…
But then, it’s little wonder, when the news is constantly crammed with climate activists screaming that we’re all going to die if we don’t achieve net zero by half past two next Tuesday afternoon.
These activists think they’re saving the world. But they aren’t. Quite the opposite. By making the young think it’s “immoral” to have children, they’re actually bringing the end of the world closer.
This climate change hysteria, therefore, is itself a threat to the human race.
Which is why I’m launching a protest group of my own. It’s called Just Stop Just Stop Oil. We plan to glue ourselves to climate activists’ front doors and block their garden paths, so they can’t leave their homes to hold silly protests.
And, if necessary, we’ll fling tomato soup over their copies of The Guardian, so they can’t read the latest distressing jeremiads from George Monbiot.

The Eco-Freaks should all go and live deep in the woods far away from civilization and in a Hollow Tree like in My Side of the Mountain
People tend to have children similar to themselves. If 39% hesitate to have children because of the climate change fraud, then that is fewer stupid people in the next generation. The next generation will be represented by the children of the remaining 61% that are not so stupid. That will be better for everyone.
Ahhh all we really need is a drive in and the back seat of a car to get these Teenies minds off Climate Hysteria…
Al those idiots who oppose Fossil Fuels should all go live in Grass Hut or Cave without any heat or ways to keep cool then see how they like it we don’t want to be forced to live the way they do. And that gose for PETA and that gose for Greenpeace and those idiots from Just Stop Oil
If these protesters had half a brain between them they might just realise that one day they might get old and infirm or even just want to retire. Who then will be left to provide for them in their dotage if they have deterred the majority of their generation from having children.
Never mind by the time they get old there will be enough droids and replicants to work and more importantly, think for them!
