Julie Jay: It’s hard to think of anything more harmful to the planet than being a parent

Julie Jay: "We try our best to preserve nature, because safeguarding the planet is one of the most important things we can do for our children."
Since having children, I have become acutely aware that we have to mind the planet for the next generation, but I draw the line at cloth nappies and parting with my beloved wet wipes.
I realise this kind of hypocrisy is up there with self-proclaimed climate activist Leonardo Di Caprio attending the wedding of Jeff Bezos, the king of consumerism, but on these points I cannot capitulate.
