Have protected sex even if you only have access to non-biodegradable condoms, getting antibiotic resistant chlamydia isn’t going to save the planet.

Also from an environmental perspective, having a child is about the worst thing you can do compared to...using a fucking condom lmao.

I can't recommend this highly enough if you're never planning on having a kid or if you're done having kids. I am a huge weenie when it comes to medical procedures and mine was super simple. I was sore for a few days, did my follow up, and that was it.

I still use condoms because of STDs but I never have to worry about accidentally having a kid if a condom breaks.

Not to mention your wife's boyfriend will buy you a Nintendo Switch.

One baby can go through 6,000 diapers until potty trained.

One condom vs 6,000 diapers. I think your right about the condom doing less damage to the environment.

Just use the washable ones, made from organic cotton. Lower environmental impact, shorter time until potty trained as well on average. Still not as good as not putting extra people on the planet though 😁

kill the baby.

Wellll

If it kills you early, it is certainly good on the climate

Chlamydia and all other stds are biodegradable

or just be a based virgin and don't have sex. That would've been the funny answer.
