diapers bad

this reads like the reddit mayobrain take where they pat themselves on the back for not eating octopus because it's "smart"

You're not doing anything, you're just stretching and reaching for a bright side to make yourself look good/feel good. Plastic literally-everything-fucking-else usage (ziploc bags, garbage bags, cups, spoons, forks, condiment packets, takeout containers, grocery bags which still exist despite having been banned) is so astronomically higher than diapers that it probably makes the CO2 differential between Africa and Europe look small

    You missed the point. Disposable plastic items filing our landfills are bad, sure.

    But the problem I was referring-to isnt the diapers. It's the catastrophic environmental damage caused by humans reproducing. The problem is the babies.

    I promise you nobody is going to stop having kids because diapers specifically are expensive
