Bronwyn Williams Lawrence Anton | The Small Print
In this episode, Bronwyn speaks to activist Lawrence Anton about antinatalism, the ethical view that creating life is morally bad. They discuss some misconception people have about the movement, Lawrence’s own reasons for becoming an antinatalist, the relationship between antinatalism and climate alarmism, veganism, and the problem of wild animal suffering.
Bronwyn Williams is a futurist, economist, trend analyst and host of The Small Print. Her day job as a partner at Flux Trends involves helping business leaders to use foresight to design the future they want to live and work in. You may have seen her talking about Transhumanism or Tikok on Carte Blanche, or heard her talking about trends on 702 or CNBC Africa where she is a regular expert commentator. When she's not talking to brands and businesses about the future, you will probably find her curled up somewhere with a (preferably paperback) book. She tweets at @bronwynwilliams.
Lawrence Anton is an antinatalist content creator and activist. He seeks to encourage others to question whether bringing new life into the world is a good thing, and those that have already reached this conclusion to work in making the world a better place with that in mind.
