Eric Holthaus, who used to do weather for Wall Street Journal, was reacting to Friday's findings from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Scientists found in the report that it was 'extremely likely' that humans are causing warming trends Holthaus said he has decided not to have children in order to leave a lighter carbon footprint, and has considered having a vasectomy He tweeted on Friday 'no children, happy to go extinct' The weatherman also said he is committed to stop flying as 'it's not worth the climate'
His next tweet said: 'Its a very emotional decision. Mixed feelings. adios babies?' According to another tweet from Holthaus, the Dutch artist known as Tinkebell, who calls attention to animal rights issues through works that use the remains of dead animals, had herself sterilised last week for a similar reason.

I've never cried because of a science report before. #IPCC,’ was his first tweet on around 2pm on Friday. ‘I realised just now: This has to be the last flight I ever take. I’m committing right now to stop flying. It’s not worth the climate,’ he tweeted a few minutes later.

How come the MSM isn’t talking about “peak oil” these days?
No, just histrionic personality disorder.
