Sorry, what? If we make our environment uninhabitable for us, even "temporarily", it'll take FAR less than a few thousand years to wipe out our species, or even just most of it. It'll also take at least a multiple of that time for that environment to recover, if it's even possible to recover in any way useful to us without our direct intervention. We've only been at the industrialized stage for a bit over 100 years and we're already at a point where we're facing unimaginable upheaval and suffering for hundreds of millions of people. I don't understand how you or anybody else can make arguments like this in good faith.
