If reincarnation could be proven, do you think there would be more or less deaths and would climate change be taken more seriously?

Well, the first step – can it be proven – is an awfully large one to climb.

But that opens up a whole series of questions:
– when you’re reincarnated, do you have all your previous memories or are you a blank slate?

- if you were ‘good’ before you died, are you ‘good’ when you come back, or are you evil?

- how many times can you be reincarnated?

- will the people you interact with know you’re reincarnated, and can they act on that knowledge, or are you there and no one knows?

- do you eventually really die?

To your point: I doubt it. Just the opposite. Knowing that you will return might be an incentive for good behavior, not bad stuff live murder.

In the first part. Let’s say it’s proven because all of mankind come back with their memories but let’s say there are gaps in time so you never meet someone from your past. However, all the things and places and people you remember existed but are long gone.
To the part of evil or good, it doesn’t matter. Evil or good can be reborn and how they turn out depends on their upbringing .
Also your memories of the past doesn’t come back fully. Just portions and people who were most important too you. Bad or good deeds or feelings aren’t relived so there are no attachments. Kind of like watching clips of a movie with dialogue but no feelings. You know the names of people in your past and your name and friends and occupation. So you can prove a prior existence but have no bond to the past. and it comes about in puberty.
The only people who are quickly reborn are those aborted or miscarried or killed at a young age through illness or accident or murdered, and they would have no memory of that short timeline.

Sounds like the plot of See You in My 19th Life

Amount of deaths would be the same.
People would be too occupied with death to worry about climate change.

The more things change the more they stay the same.

@RocketGuy I did get it from that and another show I’m currently watching. But in the 19th life no one believes she’s been reincarnated because only a few people ever remember their past life and she remembers them all. That’s why I said if everyone around the world experienced it and knew that it was real, how would people perceive death? No matter the faith most people believe we die and that’s it. No second or 10 chances at life. I believe some people for instance don’t care about climate change because they figure when I die, I’m gone. What do I care about the future? Some people may object to abortion because they think you waste the only chance of life for some soul or being. So would killing someone be more acceptable in some cases that was thought unforgivable?

What? I wanted to be blonde! Where’s the reset?

I’m confused.

What does reincarnation have to do with climate change?

I think less. If you believed in reincarnation, then anyone you meet could be your own former friend or ancestor, or your future child or descendant. You couldn’t possibly predict connections.

However, I don’t think the difference would be large. Most murderers aren’t particularly philosophical.

i agree with @SABOTEUR though. Feels like a stretch to try to connect this to climate change. I mean, you either believe the evidence or you don’t.
