I guess you should do what makes most sense to you.

There is no such moral obligation as to “have children” or “don’t have children”. The choice should be yours.

So, I have comments/questions:

• insects just like any other lifeform is sensitive and needs protection. they lay their eggs underground, where they’re protected from direct sunlight and the cold winter. if we plough through the dirt every year, it’s obvious that we’ll disrupt that generational hibernation, and that disrupts the cycle of death and rebirth for the insects, that’s why they vanish. I think ploughing is the biggest reason for insects disappearing, though it wasn’t listed in the article (or i missed it)

“We could not feed the global human population without [insect] pollinators,”

(that’s a quote from the article). I think that’s wrong though. Most calories are provided by cereals, and cereals are wind-pollinating, AFAIK.

I saw a meme a while ago with three panels:

• in the first panel, insects smashing against a driving car (labeled 1990)
• in the second panel, just the driver, but no insects (labeled 2020)
• in the third panel, the driver is gone, it’s just the car (labeled 2050)

unfortunately i can’t find the meme anymore.

Instead of recycling rare metals from batteries (which is notoriously difficult), try constructing your batteries without rare metals. It is theoretically possible, sodium ion batteries set an example for this. Yet they are still under development. Link

young adults have been forsaken by the society in favor of “the economy” and yet another bullshit.

we need an end to economic growth on earth. we need an end to investment, to innovation, to unnecessary scarcity, to the 40-hour work week, to young people spending large part of their lives in schools. we need a social system, we need communal construction and transport, we need free education and healthcare, 20-hour work weeks for all (including adults and school-goers). we need technological prowess for the benefit of society, not for some rich greedy assholes.
