I think we humans are indeed not capable of making a change to our
environment conform our wishes. I fear we are all too much capable of
making an unintented  change that (in retrospect) we did not want to
make!

Maybe nearly all of nature will survive such a change. But will a
certain primate be still part of that surviving nature?
