Halfwit did announce their decision in his usual preachy, self-righteous manner. Never mind that his carbon footprint is huge and he uses far more of the Earth’s resources than you and I or our families ever will.

I was kind of hoping William and Kate might have a couple more to move Harry farther down the line

Actually, fertility rate is declining everywhere except in sub-Saharan Africa.

Margaret Thatcher famously said that “the trouble with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people’s money:” One of the troubles with population replacement through immigration is that we will soon run out of other people.

His grandfather Prince Philip used to say the same, after fathering four children himself.

Is’s not “fertility” rate, it’s birth rates. Fertile people can choose not to procreate.

Of course Mr. discredited Population Bomb Paul Erlich. How wrong he was and still is.

Seriously, these people must know what the real problem is (see my #15). So what gives? Are they an anti-human pack of nihilists or what? Sick.

I’m giving them the award for not polluting the world with more retarded liberals. So... Yay!!!

Perfect logic sir!

The elites carbon footprints are immense but they lecture us serfs on how to live and die. This is crap. Crap is plant food as is CO2.

Relative to the history of the earth over hundreds of millions of years we are actually living in a CO2 drought. When CO2 is high vegetation flourished and great creatures roomed the earth. They had food in excess. Tyrannosaurs Rex did not dine at the local vegan restaurant. He dined on Vegans.

Relative to the melting of the icecaps it has happened many times in the past and will in the future. Man had nothing to do with it as he was not even here. It is all about sun cycles and orbital mechanics. Based on geologic history we are either in a warming period of an ice age and can go back to full ice age (this has happened in the past geologic history) or really at the end of an ice age and the polar caps will melt. Man has nothing to do with it!

Those that tell you they know are either idiots, charlatans or liars. We do not know

Does this mean Harry’s not getting any from now on?

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

He’s likely been gelded .... Meghan probably did it herself ... fingernails & no local.

I get where you are coming from, but I used it correctly as a demographic term:

Fertility rate, average number of children born to women during their reproductive years. For the population in a given area to remain stable, an overall total fertility rate of 2.1 is needed, assuming no immigration or emigration occurs. It is important to distinguish birth rates—which are defined as the number of live births per 1,000 women in the total population—from fertility rates. The single most important factor in population growth is the total fertility rate (TFR).

Link: https://www.britannica.com/topic/fertility-rate

Fertility rate refers to how many children women actually produce each in their lifetimes (on average) not how many could be.

They have way too many people in their organization. Maybe they should get rid of a bunch.

It’s funny how the elites never seem to think plagues and killer viruses that will reduce the world’s population could wipe out their family and friends too.

Do they receive an Oak Leaf Cluster for every abortion they undergo?

My understanding is that the Muslims in Europe and in the US are doing quite well on the fertility front.

I haven’t properly researched it, but I’m guessing that the only racial/ethnic demographic in the US with declining birth rates is whites, possibly Asians/Asian Americans.

Have as many children you can afford, folks. Always do the opposite of anything leftists say.
