There is only one problem with that; something I have talked about many times. We are taking away the lifeform that keeps the Earth alive: trees and we have been doing it for many thousands of years. It has had a gigantic effect on climate. Now we have to fend off the desert and try to work with what we have left.
I don't think so. This idea that we are so ineffectual there is no way we could destroy a planet with lasting effects is actually asinine. If the whole planet turned to desert because we can't keep enough forests from being destroyed by ourselves then we would be pretty well fucked wouldn't we? And it would be our fault for cutting everything down would it not?
You're changing the subject to 'deforestation'. The planet ( and the universe ) doesn't care if Earth is a barren rock or a lush paradise. And did you hear the part about human arrogance? Yeah, you were not listening and felt your counter argument more relevant.
Don't insinuate anyone is asinine because you want to talk about oranges when the topic is apples.

We are going to fucking care when we are fucked. Saving the planet is saving the humans. It's right on topic.
