While we may have a right, that doesn't mean that we need to exercise it. I am 58 years old and decided to never make another human mainly because of the environment. If I changed my mind about having a family, I told myself that I would adopt so that way I still have a family, but did not add to the population. Rescuing animals has always been an activity in my devotion to animal rights (living comprehensively vegan since 1987). Part of that was helping people have their companion animals sterilized and doing feline TNR, which I still do. "Making" more individuals is an irresponsible decision in the world as it is, IMO, human or not.
