I mean... people have been calling the apocalypse since ancient times. Because that's reality. Every civilization falls, every society fails, and it's often via war and violence. We simply have been able to become more connected and harm each other on larger scales over time.
And when exactly did humanity ever had the power to destroy the planet prior to the industrial revolution?
You're just repeating one of the usual shit arguments climate deniers are spouting daily.
We still don't have the ability to destroy the planet. We just will make it uninhabitable for the number of humans that are currently here, which has happened quite a lot in human history.
