    Since Fran Lebowitz is not on social media I cannot tell her directly how much I agree with her "environmentalism". I, too, never had children, but I do have an AC that I frugally use only during heat waves. Not having any children may not absolve all my actions, but it's the greatest contribution to the environment I could've made.
