Humans have been crushing biodiversity for more than two thousands years now and yet the homo sapiens is thriving by all objective measures like population count, habitat width and dispensable energy per capita. You may argue that at some point we have to stop and I agree. However this doesn't contradict the fact that up until now reducing biodiversity (e.g. by replacing forests with monoculture field crops) worked out extremely well.
