Is humankind going to eventually kill out ourselves and the entire Earth?

Really... "I believe the world is burning to the ground"

The way I see it, we can only cover this earth with so much smog, global warming and skyscrapers, and the bigger the population gets, the bigger it will get... and there will be no more room or trees or animals, who will die off one by one, increasingly fast while the eco-systems collapse... 

What does everyone else think?

No and No, Human may seem like an destructive specie but when survival comes down to it, it will fight.

Earth has gone through many things worse than humans.

I think that eventually, and I'm not exaggerating here, we will destroy all of humanity. Global warming is a HUGE problem on this planet, and that was caused by humans. The atmosphere will warm up, causing ice caps to melt, and all of the earths land will flood, and we will all drown. Another problem is war. These days, there are lots of wars going on, and millions of people are dying for reasons I don't even know. We've stopped using nuclear arms for 70 years, I think, but that doesn't mean we won't bring them back! If we don't stop war and pollution, and we know that wont happen, we will eventually wipe out humanity as we know it!!!

yes as long as our countries fight each other and want to be a head of the other they will do anything to be on top and the environment is just the pawns in there little chess game until the hole world comes together we are going to keep killing ourselves and the environment around us we need to put they worlds pens not guns together and figure out a common ground to make peace on like...the survival on our world

Side: yes unless peace comes

Well... There is going to be an end and that cannot be changed. How it happens is different. If we continue to remain stupid then yes we will be over, if we are perhaps much wiser it can be stopped. But, I'm pretty sure that life will retain for quiet some period. It is tough for it to simply burn out. There will be action. The World will figure out a way. I guess, or at least I hope with confidence.

Side: yes unless peace comes

Nope.

Room on our planet has barely been filled.

Our oceans are practically empty in comparison to our land.

Adapting technology to allow us to live in the oceans would not only solve overpopulation, but it would be far cheaper and easier then colonizing space this early on.

Duuuuuurp-a-derp.

Side: Oceans Will Save Us

If nuclear war occurs, humanity will not survive. It is up to humanity to put an end to nuclear weapons.

To the question: no. Humans can make the planet uninhabitable--for humans and probably most mammals and higher order animals. But the vast majority of life will continue to thrive and compete, just as the Earth will continue long after we are gone and our cities crumbled.

I think we should stop worrying bot the EARTH but look for new planets that could support life for us

Side: No lets look at space

Hmm, yeah. Interesting, I think that too. But right now, I don't think there's enough plantlife to support us at other planets....

But if we could just break from this solar system....

Side: No lets look at space

We will never die out. Anyone who says otherwise is just giving up. We have gone from horse drawn carriages, to cars, computers, and the internet in just 200 years. We have billions of years left to come up of a way to escape the sun exploding.

Side: No lets look at space
