Sure we've done all sorts of things that we ourselves label as great, but remove those things from the natural evolution of the earth and would anything we've done be so important that the world couldn't carry on without it? The earth would probably have been quite alright, maybe even "happier" without us. Wonder what would have happened if the earth had continued to develop with only non-human inhabitants? I think humans put far too much importance on themselves and their so-called "top of the food chain" civilizations. We really do some very screwed-up things on a regular basis. I don't find us to be as intelligent as we say and think we are. It kind of reinforces my belief that human beings are a “cosmic mistake”.
