    Nah the planet will be just fine. Humans (and other living things) though will truly be fucked.

      Some living things will make it through the extinction event and the next sentient species will fuck it all up again in a billion years or so.

        Assuming they can even get to our level, we already extracted the easily reachable fossil fuels and the circumstances that originally created them (lots of trees dying and not being broken down by fungi) probably won’t ever reoccur.

        Maybe something will turn all the plastic we’re making into a new fossil fuel, but more likely any civilization that comes after us will be stuck in the bronze/iron age.
