<p>We examine the stigmatization of women who have chosen to remain childfree because of climate change and how they cope with it, a topic tied to growing concern about climate change and its impact on young people’s reproductive decisions. The aim was to explore how women navigate societal reactions and pressures related to the normative ideal of motherhood when deciding not to have children, including for environmental reasons. Seven women participated in semi-structured interviews, which we analyzed using thematic analysis. They frequently faced negativity, misunderstanding, and distrust—most often from older generations. Their social circles showed little willingness to recognize climate-related concerns as a valid reason for remaining childfree, despite general awareness of climate change. Positive responses came mainly from peers. Families and acquaintances acknowledged climate change but did not view it as sufficient justification for reproductive decisions or for choosing to remain childfree. All women experienced stigmatization, though its impact lessened with age as they developed better coping strategies. These findings shed light on a growing phenomenon likely to gain relevance in the coming years.</p>
