a) a planet-wide problem
b) a problem that started with human industrial activity, has been ongoing since, and will continue to occur until after you and I are dead
In addition, the entire global economy, and the societies and cultures in it, continue to encourage activities that make the problem worse - activities such as having kids. Because those kids, like you, will constantly consume resources and perpetuate the current system and status quo. In fact, this is the very basis of your argument, that one should have kids to keep (our current) societies and civilizations going. And that's precisely why it's deeply and fundamentally flawed.
