"May we live long and die out" is the unofficial motto of a new movement that seeks to improve the Earth's ecosystem by ensuring that the human species does not survive.
The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement, or VHEMT, consists of volunteers who have made active life decisions to remain childless for the benefit of the Earth, thereby preventing the extinction of millions of species of plants and animals.
While no one person takes credit for being the founder, Les U. Knight created its name and is the spokesperson for the movement.
"We've already exceeded Earth's carrying capacity for humans by quite a bit," Knight told WND. "We are using up our resources. The best way to stop it is by not breeding. It's really the best way because the people we don't create don't exist, and so there's no impact on them."
VHEMT activists believe a smaller population will benefit the Earth by reducing human and environmental catastrophe.
"There is no problem on the planet that would be more easily solved by adding more people," Knight said. "Everything that we like, including clean air and clean water and wilderness to go and visit, all of those will increase as there become fewer of us."
Knight said the greenest habit humans can have is to prevent creation of another member of the species, reducing humanity's ecological footprint on the Earth.

I don’t see a problem here. If Greens stop having children, their cultural influence will wane and eventually disappear.
I would say that many of them started out childless because they wanted to go to bars and get plastered and hook up with strangers and play Xbox instead of being mommies and daddies with all that responsibility. Then when they were too old and drug-soaked to reproduce, they decided to claim cool environmentalism.
Two words: Retroactive abortion.
Anybody with their only claim is to advocate the eradication of their own species is a useless drain on limited resources.
Also, the more education a woman receives after high school, the more likely she is to have fewer children.
“Became carfree in 2000.”
Translation: living in his mother’s basement, still wearing diapers.
Right, if they killed themselves, then who would be around to annoy the rest of us with their insane BS?
The Dhimmicrats have been promoting this in a round about way for 30+ years: through abortion.
OK, that’s really disturbing. What did these pictures come from? A rock album?
While I was in prison.
Like that creepy Clown Serial Killer guy.
More and more blatantly they reveal that the Democrat/Liberal/Progressive Party, is a Murder/Suicide/Death Cult.
The only lives they consider as not expendable, are those of psychopathic mass murderers...*their* lives must be spared at all costs!
