Synopsis

I could fly to New York and back every day for seven years and still not leave a carbon footprint as big as if I have a child.

Ten thousand tonnes of CO2.

That's the weight of the Eiffel Tower.

I'd be giving birth to the Eiffel Tower.'

In a time of global anxiety, terrorism, erratic weather and political unrest, a young couple want a child but are running out of time.

If they over think it, they'll never do it.

But if they rush, it could be a disaster

They want to have a child for the right reasons.

Except, what exactly are the right reasons?

And what will be the first to destruct – the planet or the relationship?
