I feel like not having kids kinda defeats the purpose of saving the planet

That's your DNA's raging narcissism speaking. Not to impugn yours specifically, of course. The interests of an intelligent mind are not the same as the interests of the biological system that hosts it. Consider what's actually important to you as more than a pile of meat. Reproduction is so selfish when there are so many humans with unmet needs already reaching out for your help.
