Why do us humans have to reproduce, since it's causing overpopulation?

I’m thinking about having children when I’m an adult in the future. But after watching videos about the horrible effects of overpopulation on earth at Youtube, I’m having second thoughts about it. Should we not have children, so the earth can thrive along with other living organisms, accept us? Should we all commit suicide or abort our children for the the survival of the earth and not the human species? I can go on forever about this MAJOR issue about humans if we were meant to be created or not meant to be created in the first place. Why be alive, if we only ruined everything we ever discovered, consumed it for our own sustenance, and never reciprocated anything back, that would REALLY BENEFIT THIS PLANET?! I seriously hate being a human right now! What is your opinion on this?
