Yeah, we are pretty much a cancer, but the Earth will be just fine. The Earth will be around long after humanity. So dont worry about the Earth to much, worry about us destroying our natural reserves and source of oxygen so we can be around for a while.
I don't wanna insult anyone but everytime i hear something like this i instantly imagine an angry 16 y old girl waving around a banner. Let's be realistic here. The way i see it Earth is like an appartment and humans are the ones that live in it. As the years pass, we'll come up with a way to colonize other planets and move from here, just like you'd move from an appartment. But the thing that most people just don't want to understand is that if it weren't for humans as a race, it would've been some other race. We just evolved first and stayed here.
Yeah, sure, i'm all for preservation of the planet, don't get me wrong. I don't like a dirty messy appartment, but no, i don't agree that humans are a cancer to the planet and should all be extinct.

I just hope one day humanity will clean up its act, and some times I do agree that humans are the worst thing to happen to this planet, still as it seems nothing is going to shift us, one can only hope we can develop something akin to a more symbiotic relationship rather then the parasitic one that has represented our time as the dominant species.
Oh pawlease! schmoll
The earth is responsible for our advancement. It should've known what it was getting itself into! 😛
Besides.....Do you know that the earth experiences a cycle of mass extinction every 62 million years?
It cleanses itself:
