Supporting antinatalists to do good.
Our Areas of Focus
The only guaranteed way to protect a being from harm is to refrain from bringing them into existence in the first place. However, this fact is frequently overlooked in efforts to redress suffering in the world. Therefore, we believe antinatalists can bring a fresh perspective to existing issues, and we have identified four cause areas where we believe antinatalists can have a particularly positive impact. You can find out more on the pages dedicated to each of these areas of focus (Human Suffering, Animal Agriculture, Artificial Sentience, and Wild Animal Suffering respectively).
-
The lifetime of every human typically contains a significant amount of suffering and the guarantee of death.
-
Billions of sentient beings are brought into existence to suffer and die in animal agriculture and aquaculture every year.
-
Humans could soon create sentience in a new form and few are thinking of the ethical implications for the ones who will be created.
-
Trillions of animals exist in the wild and often have lives that are short and brutal.
