    "change of pace"

    I would say: I'm happy about it /about that change of pace.

    Oriola ¿what is the objective of the VHEMT? ¿Complete extincion or drastic reduction? I think that it is so curious.

    The objective of the VHEMT is the extinction, of course

    But you can support a drastic reduction of the human population and don't have children as well. So from the practical point of view it's the same.

    It would be absurd to believe that everybody in the world will follow this movement. So either you support the extinction or just a population decrease, don't breed! The total impact of your decision will be the same (because we're a minority).

    Ah! I understand. Ok. It's interesting to me because I thougt in many occasions don't have children, maybe adopt because we are too people in the world and the world isn't infinity and there are too many children that need somebody, so...

    You should read the arguments exposed in the VHEMT web. Maybe in English so you can practice while you read about this movement.

    Since the aim of this topic is to learn english (and at the risk of being taken as a pedant), I think there are several things in this paragraph that you should correct.

    I would say:
    "It's interesting to me because in many occasions I've thought about not having children and maybe adopting them instead, because we are too many people in the world and the world isn't infinite. And there are too many children that need somebody, so... "

    I can also be wrong, of course. I would gladly admit corrections.
