We've done a lot of damage, in the last hundred years.
We're consuming natural resources like there is no tommorow,
Two world wars, nuclear testing, pesticides, toxic and chemical wastes,... Has the planet actually peaked to where it can no longer compensate for our meddling?
I just read an article about the salt marshes on the East Coast. The Scientists are baffled, and can't come to a consensus.
Maybe there is a simpler answer, and we just don't want to fess up to the truth.

for sure there is not any incorrect or acceptable answer to this question. that's like asking how our planet got here in to existence contained in the first position. a large type of reviews, a large type of no longer something. per chance it has continuously been, and continuously will be. per chance time is a human aspect, and would not exist on the ordinary element (i recognize physicists could argue that). yet really, all we've are theories, in accordance with regulations that we do not recognize are consistent... i imagine the suited answer to this question is who cares? i am going to allow you to recognize what besides the undeniable fact that. Nature is desirable. a lot more effective eye-catching than a foul, polluted city. Any who really desires those style of indulgences? human beings were merely as satisfied as we are right now a million,000 years in the past without the vehicles, telephones, television, etc... that's all about attitude. The sex replaced into more effective acceptable too.

Faster than you can bat an eyelash. Just look around. Nothing is the same as it was even 2 years ago. Places that were cold are getting hotter and even the time of day when it used to be the hottest (noon -3pm) now becomes 5-8pm Vegetables in the garden aren't growing right and the soil even feels different.

NO
We did a lot more over 100 years ago. Just look back. We cut all the trees down in England and the US to build ships ,homes and to keep warm. All the trees on the east cost of the US are young.
Life is much hardier than you think.

I think that we are due for another mass extinction. Instead of volcanoes or comets, this one will be man-made. Then, in about 10,000 years, things will start to event out again and you won't even notice that anyone was ever here!

No. The simple answer is to do what we were created to do. We are to take care of and be good managers of our environment. Read Genesis 1:26-31. Sadly, people reject God and do whatever they think is best...that is why we are in messes.
Do you reject God too? How about his provision of eternal life & peace through Jesus Christ?

Yes our planet is dying. One day it will look the same as Mars - where our ancestors came from.
