If the minority of people who don't have kids were contributing a disproportionate amount of pollution, you can be sure we'd have heard of it. But I bet if you control for national origin (people in developed countries pollute more, people in developing countries are less likely to not have kids) you'd find that CF people are consuming less than their childed peers, because we aren't buying as much/many plastic kindercrap, diapers, urban assault vehicles, and dinosaur-shaped chicken tenders. Nor are we flying 4+ people when going on holiday.
And that's before you even calculate the environmental cost of those children into adulthood.

I have nerve damage from the waist down, so I do indeed wear diapers, but I only go diapered when I have to leave the house which is three times a week. I do however recycle the rubbish.
