    Rest assured the Earth will be just fine. It isn’t dying by any stretch of the word.

    It’s changing. Changing in a way that isn’t conducive to human life.

    We earned this. It’s time to take our medicine. We either change, today, or we die. It’s that simple.

      you got me in the first half. although, at this rate, the earth may turn unsuitable for any life whatsoever. or at least any microbiological life.

        I don’t think we, humans, will survive long enough to do real, long lasting “damage” to this world. We simply don’t have that power.

        In truth, we are pissants on the ass of a titan. A nuisance but nothing more.

        Once momma shrugs her shoulders we are done.

          It depends on what you mean by “damage”. Humans have made a lot of other species go extinct. But damage to the planet itself? Hell no. Even if we did want to blow up the planet, I don’t think that we could.

            I mean technically, we have the know-how to grab a space rock and toss it, really really fast, at Earth and take off a decent chunk of it.

            What I mean is that Earth will recover. New life will arise and thrive and very likely something else will get a chance at dominance. Or nothing will. There are no guarantees that what sparked human development will ever happen again. However, life, will go on. It’ll just go on without us.
