Pardon me? If eliminating potential children reduces environmental impact then eliminating oneself must reduce environmental impact at least as much and in all likelihood more. It's a valid addendum to the original parent. If it seems absurd, well then so is the claim that one should not have children for environmental reasons.

That said I will happily review the rules page again, I didn't intentionally violate it.
