The earth isn't some living being that has feelings to be hurt. The universe does not give a fuck what happens. We are living in a sliver of time on earths life supporting existence, if we end up fucking shit up so bad that humans can't survive, which would have to be pretty bad, and i figure very gradually, then mankind is the only fallout of that.

That pretty much sums up how I feel... Whether it's happening or not is a science question and the consensus is yes. Is it going to affect life on earth? Sure... but what do species do since there was life on this planet? When faced with a new predator or changing environment, all life either adapts, evolves or goes extinct. Those able to withstand the new environment will go on. The strong will survive. Even if humans can't survive, life will on earth will go on. That said, clean up after yourself, recycle, reuse, reduce polution.... because I don't want to live on a dumpy planet... lol
