Would the planet be better without humans?

humans are basically the cause of all the bad stuff happening to earth

What's normal for the spider, is not normal for the fly.

Basically, the world isn't better or worse either way. It's only humans that think these things are bad. Nature doesn't notice anything is off, because all of it's systems are playing out exactly as they always do. Humans are part of nature, so everything we do is, in fact, natural. We just happen to be an organism that consumes it's host. But we are evolving into a symbiotic species so it'll probably all work out if everyone gets their s@#$ together and start managing resources more intelligently.

All the bad stuff would happen to Earth even if humans were not here: earthquakes, volcanos, hurricanes, droughts, floods, forest fires due to lightning strikes, plate tectonics, asteroid strikes, coronal mass ejections, species extinction, etc.

Yes, it may be true the humans might make some of those slightly worse while the majority we have absolutely no control over. And there is an aspect where humans are making things better as well. Your question doesn't make sense. It appears your beliefs have been skewed somehow. You have a very pessimistic outlook and a somewhat exaggerated belief of the extent that man can influence nature.

Not really, but rather then that people should change into nice, caring, honest, happy, smart, friendly people. Because have you noticed the world is changing????? humans being arrogant, dishonest, liars, not fair childish and not caring at all, just ruining the world. Don't you think??

Don't you think the world should rather be a peaceful place where everyone can be equal and be friends??? because that's what I want the world to become, I mean I wan to make that happen right now at the place where I am.

So basically it will be better to have humans on the earth, more than not having them. Its just the world is not a best position at the moment, so you cant do anything that's all.

It wouldn't be better for you and me. It might be better for some creatures. Some animals like chickens and cows would probably die off. Change always favors some at the expense of others. Frankly I like humans and am a proud card carrying member of the human race.

You are a product of total anti human propaganda. The Universe went to a great deal of trouble over a very long time just to give you something to stand on while you experienced this reality, so don't waste it by filling your mind with this sort of crap.

No, the planet not better without humans, its my comment.

We cause some pretty good stuff too, like chocolate, love, great art, amazing inventions, etc.

Depends on what humans do. You're human too so what will you do.

In an environmental sense, perhaps yes

greedy western ones yes, destroying the planet to make rich men richer! its disgusting.

humans are basically the cause of all the bad stuff happening to earth

Without humans, Earth would be just another rock floating in space without a purpose.

Perhaps. But there would be no one around to care.

There would be less life on it. And life is very good!

may be no , i dont think
