I agree that some kids are bad for the environment. Take my newborn son, for instance. I’m tired of changing diapers.

Why don’t these wackos do the planet a favor and commit suicide?

For sure, we’ll see them trying to change the laws too, to support their anti-human agenda.

Near our house some kids play basketball in their drive sun up to sun down.
After, say, six hours listening to dribbling, shooting, and constant shouting,
I'm ready to hear the left-wing nuts say that kids are wrecking the earth . . . |

Silly me. I thought the depths of the abortion mill racket was posed as the attractive convenience of not having to care for children. (Even if one should be "unsuccessful" at that "chore", one or more of Hillary's ever so many "village" programs and health-care will get your out of such a predicament.
If those reasons and "back-stop" were somehow insufficient, enter now the guilt-laden being-able-to-afford-our-rightful-carbon-offset burden.

My son’s carbon footprint is much larger than my daughter’s ever was.

I live in the country and I have to deal with smells from the neighbor’s cows (my horses smell perfectly fine) so we all have a “cross to bear”.

Children bad for the planet? But essential for the future!

Who cares if you think children are essential for (your) future?
You're just one of the little people, in case you didn't know, and you've just identified yourself as non-green greedy, doll.
The remaining population will be just that much easier to control once we weed out your malformed thinking. /heavy, heavy sarc

“... if couples had two children instead of three they could cut their family’s carbon dioxide output by the equivalent of 620 return flights a year between London and New York.”
Factoids for the innumerate. They’re off by about a factor of 20.

The environmentalists are blissfully ignorant of basic economics.
A child that is allowed to prosper in a free market will produce (on average) far more goods than they will use.
A child in a socialist third world country will (on average) use more than they produce.
It is high technology (most likely to be created in a free economy) that will allow a cleaner environment for all.
To ask Australians or others in the developed world to have less children is the rawest self-destructive stupidity.

The nihilistic hedonist Marxists (the new far-left) hate capitalism, America, western civilization (including Judeo-Christian values), science, and the human race (in that descending order). The overarching theme is one of a vendetta against all forms of success, a universal form of dysgenics that goes far beyond biology. The environment is only one of several convenient rallying points for their sociocultural funk to coalesce around.
The eventual extinction of humanity (or at least the ending of our current way of life in the west) is something they embrace; to them, humanity is a virus, with America being the most virulent form. Any movement perceived to be instrumental to "curing" this "infection" is, in turn, embraced - thus the (at best) tepid support of terrorism, communism, ecofascism, anti-theism (militant atheism), moral degeneracy, subsidization of failure, obstruction of success (excessive taxation, over-regulation), subversion of law (disregard for the Constitution, criminal-as-victim), and multiculturalism (where the assimilation of members of inferior cultures is viewed almost as a crime, while, at the same time, the goal is to erode the dominant culture by way of government fiat via an explicit extension of more 'positive rights' for cultures, activities and behaviors that would otherwise self-correct).
Is it any surprise that population control is also embraced? Sure, they invite it with an environmental pretext (finite resources, increasing resource use per person = "overpopulation") but make no mistake - they push it because they hate our way of life, they hate everything America and the western world stands for. They wish to slow the spread of the "virus". The vast majority don't even realize what they are trying to "progress" towards.

Isn’t that the truth. This a** should have taken a few math courses. What orifice do these people pull their statistics out of?

"Why dont these wackos do the planet a favor and commit suicide?"
The leaders must remain to supervise the outcome. Sorta like Jim Jones and The Peoples Church in Guyana.
