Mother Nature is Dying and we look away.
Mother Nature.
Oh mud mommy.
You're just another bitch in Sky Daddy's harem.
If you investigate the URL of the above picture it says, "7 million deaths from air pollution by 2050"
Considering much of the rest of the thread is about Proglodytes bitching about other people overpopulating their world you have to wonder where the trouble is.
Our Cities are Killing Her.
This is Colorado.
Have you seen what it's like in those places where all those illegal immigrants come from?
If that's what they do to their own country imagine what they'll do to ours.
Mother Nature Near Death.
Mud mommy didn't make that statue, people did.
It's mud mommy's life that destroyed the statue.

2. She will be just fine. WE won't
I understand what you are trying to say but I have to disagree with the premise.
"Mother Nature" has been a hell hole for hundreds of millions of years. A molten rock, one big ocean, A methane covered oven, a big ball of ice, etc... throughout it all, the earth has survived as has some form of life. It will survive until the sun blows up and eventually incinerates it in a few billion years.
What is happening is that we are making our planet uninhabitable for ourselves and other organisms that require the precises conditions for life right now. WE are killing ourselves albeit slowly. There will come a time, if we do not reverse course, where we will simply not be able to breathe the air, drink the water, or grow food in the soil, and that will be our fault, unless an asteroid hits us and accelerates the process.
We can't really hurt the earth except in the very short term. What we can and are doing is destroying our habitat.

28. I know what you are saying, but mother nature has built a beautiful series of ecosystems
here, and bit by bit we are destroying them.
I guess maybe more properly we are destroying her children.
Mud mommy didn't build a damned thing.
It all happened by accident.
Or maybe God made it, though I suspect you would resent that sentiment.
God generally being pictured in the masculine, and all.

3. "The Earth is an organism, and that organism has a skin...
...and that skin has diseases; one of these diseases is Mankind." -- Nietzsche
The Nazis were pretty fond of Nietzsche.
The Nazis were also eugenicists.
Hey! Speaking of eugenicists!

12. Too many humans on the planet
A mass extinction event is inevitable, but in the collapse we will strain the seas for every last edible animal and cut down every plant/tree we can use.
It'll be an ugly scene
Is this a dog whistle for "too many brown people"?
It sure seems that way because whites aren't breeding fast enough to meet their replacement rate.
Hey! Speaking of too many brown people:

5. But ISIS and Radical Islam....
So the people who are breeding the most aren't a threat because they want to gun you down, blow you up or slit your throat...
...they're a threat because they have babies.

14. Yes, too many humans.
But we don't dare talk about limiting population, as in how many children to have.
I know how children YOU should have.

17. The left denies overpopulation the way the right denies climate change.
Sometimes people have to face uncomfortable truths.
Lead from the front.

18. Too many in denial because the media they follow doesn't talk about it.
The advertisers don't allow it. Besides, the parent companies have a financial stake in status quo, they lose big money changing to an much different lifestyle.

21. indeed
There are simply too many people and we've exceeded the carrying capacity of our world. There are only 3 options:
1-Continue overpopulating leading to disaster in the future.
2-Either force people to have fewer children, or have them voluntarily not have children.
3-Some kind of great plague or pandemic comes along and wipes out 3-4 billion of us.
Nothing we do in terms of fighting climate change or saving the environment will matter much unless we can put the brakes on our population growth. Population control is like the gigantic purple elephant in the room, and nobody wants to deal with it.
I think YOU are overpopulating the world.
Let's start there.
Then we can move on to those who don't produce anything.

23. She's not dying, she has all the time in the world.
Soon we humans will be a peculiar layer of trash in the geologic record.
We have to think what we want.
Nature doesn't care, if we don't recognize her rules, we die.
Many innovative species have come and gone in this planet's history.
We won't be the first, we won't be the last.
A flash in the pan.
