As from my point of view nature is to destroy enything humans create, and contrasted with this is nature's behaviour trying to recreate what ever humans had destroyed.
It is just a matter of time.

we are never in war with nature,
if some feel they are, they should stop,
as Allah (GOD) created nature, and created us in this nature and made it available for our living and all our needs,
we should live in harmony with this wonderful universe,
Nature is not our enemy to have war with it,
that would be too stupid of us to do

At war, I would say no, but destroying the planet for sure!
I believe what you put into this life you get back, and quite frankly we are generally only interested in money and so called development. I think nature is objecting to this in it's own way.
You know the Hopi Indians saying:
When the last tree has been cut down
when the last fish has been caught
when the last river has been poisoned
THEN man will know that money cannot be eaten.
HOW TRUE, but it's too late to change people now, governments are NOT doing anything serious to help. Then shout a little about recycling, saving energy etc but do nothing really big to force people to do better. They are the people in power and we have to abide by the law so it's in their hands really. Saving water, electricity and recycling in your home is great, but in the overall picture that's a drop in the ocean (excuse the pun)

No we are not at war with nature. We are a species fighting to survive like every other organism. We just have the greatest mental capacity of them all and therefore are efficient in our evolutionary goal (all be it in a horrific and unbalanced way).
This is the same as stating beavers, gorillas, dolphins, birds, etc are at war with nature as they destroy living things for housing, food collection, etc.
I do agree that nature tries to destroy everything created, but is not limited to only that which is molded by mankind. A great parallel would be the creation and erosion of mountains.
Within due time, mankind will stabilize it's population, adjust it's needs to sustainable levels, and will learn we are nothing more than another one of mother natures beautiful creations.

The burning of coal, oil, and natural gas, as well as deforestation and various agricultural and industrial practices, are altering the composition of the atmosphere and contributing to climate change. These human activities have led to increased atmospheric concentrations of a number of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, chlorofluorocarbons, and ozone in the lower part of the atmosphere.
Carbon dioxide is produced when coal, oil, and natural gas (fossil fuels) are burned to produce energy used for transportation, manufacturing, heating, cooling, electricity generation, and other applications. The use of fossil fuel currently accounts for 80 to 85% of the carbon dioxide being added to the atmosphere.
Land use changes, e.g., clearing land for logging, ranching, and agriculture, also lead to carbon dioxide emissions. Vegetation contains carbon that is released as carbon dioxide when the vegetation decays or burns. Normally, lost vegetation would be replaced by re-growth with little or no net emission of carbon dioxide. However, over the past several hundred years, deforestation and other land use changes in many countries have contributed substantially to atmospheric carbon dioxide increases. Although deforestation is still occurring in some parts of the northern hemisphere, on the whole, re-growth of vegetation in the north appears to be taking some carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. Most of the net carbon dioxide emissions from deforestation are currently occurring in tropical regions. Land use changes are responsible for 15 to 20% of current carbon dioxide emissions.
though nature may look like loser its not its really a winner it tries peace making for every human activities.....finally it will burst up to teach the humans a lesson but the survivors will be nil to understand the fact

It does seem that we are at war with nature and it shouldn't be so. Even though we seem to be trying to do our best to overcome Nature (we're doing a pretty good job of it with our raping of natural resources and trying to kill it with pollution), Mother Earth will have the last say. Count on it.

It is not a war as such, try reading Dawkins "Blind Watchmaker". The words like "destroy" and "create" are purely human notions

Yes.
Man is a component of nature.
His free spirit,curiosity,unsettled lust ensures that the war with Nature will be a lifelong battle.
In the word of DH Lawrence - ".......... we have No time to stand and stare ....".
Like all children do, Man has to break his new found toy and spend the rest of life trying to fix it.
