Well another thought is that the only way to revert this so-called doomerist path is to choose to have and raise kids with empathy for others and with care towards the natural world they've inherited.

Raising them with good values doesn't mean that they will keep those throughout their life, unfortunately. Quite risky to bet on that.

I have no data to support this but I'm willing to bet that the likelihood they do keep those values is significantly greater than the likelihood that they don't.

So, a very low risk bet.
