In 100 years, I will be utterly indifferent to everything because I'll be dead, and so will you. In a thousand years, nothing we know about the earth will be recognizable, and in a hundred thousand years the earth's surface may be nearly uninhabitable, but I doubt it will be due to the actions of man. The history of earth is the history of catastrophe. Keep in mind the earth's last major catastrophe was a mere 13,000 years ago when a part of a comet struck North America as it was coming out of an ice, which regularly occur about every 100,000 years, and that changed the northern hemisphere in ways we're still coming to understand.
So, please don't get all liberal weepy about life on earth, because we're here for an extremely short time, and our grandchildren may not remember us, and our great grandchildren will have no idea who we were.
