The title. But I can't base a thread on just the title, because Mods and Admins can change it. OK, original title: Would the Earth be better without humans?
Yes, the Earth only has about 500 million years before the core cools down and slows, hence Earth would become lifeless, so eventually like every other species on this planet, the human race will end one day, only to be replaced.
Why do you say it's being destroyed? What clues do you have? In my point of veiw we are only remodeling it with roads and towers.
Ever heard of deforestation? If you need some illustrations, see Borneo and Madagascar as examples (images below). We destroy the rainforest ecosystem, which exposes the land to erosion and loss of nutrients, and of course the carbon-processing area is much smaller.
Yes, however I think that faced with the choice of either keeping or removing humanity from Earth many people, including myself would choose the former.
