Zero human population = zero economic activity = zero pollution = minimal green house gases = a nice planet on which the animals can live.
Do you think that we have the right of occupancy ?

We as a species, have the right to be here, just the same as any other creature. The problem is, we've made a huge mess on the planet. If we don't get our $hit together, the planet is going to evict us. It'll do that by "pushing the reset button". Weather will get out of control and wipe out every thing and nature will start over. Actually, we're on that track right now.
We're very greedy and that's going to be our down fall. We want more and more and we'll do just about any thing to get it. The planets health isn't a total loss. Not yet. If we make some very radical changes, we can salvage the Earth. However, the likelyhood of that happening any time soon, is unlikely. To do what needs to be done would mean putting "big oil" out of business, which won't ever happen. To make some thing like "saving the planet" pheasible, we'd have to "chuck" our whole way of life, out the window and start a new, as far as economics as we know it today, is concerned.
There are many different projects in the works to aid in taking care of the planet. Unfortunately, many of them are only prolonging the inevitable. Or I suppose you could look at it as, "buying more time" until a solution is created.

Yes, as much as any other species. And the equation doesn't really hold up - there have been loads of disasters and extinction level events in the history of the planet before there were even any humans around. Catastrophe shapes the world!

I always thought zero population growth amongst irresponsible peoples would solve a lot of problems. Millions of people need to be reminded they are human beings and not rabbits.

We need to earn the right of occupancy.
