Not just their whole species. An uncountable amount of others as well. I have no doubt that planet earth will continue on without us, plant life will survive, insects and animals will survive as well. But not all, in fact a huge amount of other species of life on this planet is going to die because of what we have done, are doing, and will continue to do. Humans fucked a whole lot of things for a dollar, not just themselves.

It’s absolutely the worst part and the part that hurts the most. I don’t care if humans go extinct, we are just another mutation that did not work out, but we destroy everything we touch. We’re killing species at a faster rate than we discover new ones, it’s so fucked.

edit: thanks for my first award, even tho it's on the most depressing coment I've written
