all other forms of life. There are too many of us.
Is the earth fighting back with AIDS and reduced sperm count.?
What do you think about this. ?
Love Ron.
Ron, yes I do believe we have taken over and are are killing off the planet, solely because we are able to, and we can prevent other organisms from doing the same, e.g. locusts, cockroaches, viruses, bacteria, or whatever.

There is a theory that plagues and wars are a natural leveller of the world's population.

Here is a rather hard-nosed, negative view (not one I subscribe to), but one which has a kind of nihilistic logic to it:

What does it matter if we destroy the earth - there are plenty of other planets out there we can colonize?
Anyway, we can't actually destroy life, as it is eternal; it just changes form, so we are not really killing anything.
Even if mankind vanished from the earth, we would just reincarnate on other planets and the less enlightened amongst us would just create the same problems again
