A philosophy professor at Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge says the only way to save the planet is to stop having children.
Patricia MacCormack claimed she received death threats after she released her new book, ‘The Ahuman Manifesto’.
Prof. MacCormack says giving birth to children is the worst thing you can do to the climate and the only way to save the planet is to stop having children.
Prof. MacCormack, who describes herself as an ‘old school goth’ and London DJ, told Yahoo Lifestyle: “I simply propose people not reproduce, and it automatically translated into acts of violence.”
“So, somehow, I want to kill children, which is ridiculous. Somehow, I’m proposing eugenics or some kind of ethnic population control … and I think that what that shows is there is an anthropocentric – or a human – impulse to read acts of grace as, automatically, acts of violence.”
Her book ‘The Ahuman Manifesto’ sparked outrage and she was called delusional and even received death threats after releasing her book.
She says people, who didn’t read her book, are misunderstanding her and people are triggered because her ideas contradicts their fundamental view of the world.
She says the earth is becoming rapidly inhospitable due to our carbon output and this is why people should stop having children as it is the only way to save the planet.
Her suggestions also include ‘abolitionist veganism’ as she told Yahoo: “There are people living in the apocalypse right now – especially non-human animals, who have born into an apocalypse. They live to suffer and then they’re murdered.”
Prof. MacCormack also accused the climate protest group Extinction Rebellion for only focusing on the effect this will have on human life.
She told Cambridgeshire Live: “Even Extinction Rebellion only focuses on the effect this will have on human life when climate change is something that will affect every living being on the planet.”
