Do I think all life giving planets are eventually destroyed by their own intelligent species equivalent to Homo Sapiens?

H sapiens are just a bunch of lottery tickets becuz the planet is trying to win something. Planet needs an intervention to stop playing.

I think we'll destroy ourself before the planet - but it's going to be a photo finish

Nah, only poor justification for what we've already been doing as a species since prehistoric times

We will avoid this because we "self regulate"
