If you just mean that the earth will continue to exist, or that some manner of organism will live on it, then yeah that seems like a safe bet. But a lot of people think it would be a bad thing if we drove elephants to extinction, or destroyed the Great Barrier Reef (and not for any prudential reasons tied to human interests, either), and that's what they mean when they urge us to "Save the Earth."

It'd be much easier on personal level for everyone to justify not using plastic and voting for people who prioritize sustainability over short-term profit if green movement campaigned for saving our grand children from living in hell, than saving a floaty rock from an ephemeral threat.
