The problem is there are too many people on the planet using too many resources (too many of the wrong resources). Too many military actions using millions of tons of explosives. The threat of nuclear conflict contantly hanging over our heads. All the test launches which burns enough fuel to power an average city for a year. They don’t care how much fuel they burn or all the nasty gases they spew into the atmosphere. All the leaders can think about is power, control, and the ego’s. they never think about conservation and saving the planet as a platform.

Been seeing this since I was a kid in the 50's, I'm still rooting for the good guys. We aught to get out diving togather and get back to real life.

You never know what’s going to happen, especially on a long enough time line, so don’t give up hope. Think of it: marine mammals used to live on land... then they went BACK.
 
The problem looks like that there will not be another place that will rebuild itself.
None of the coral reefs you have ever seen existed 13,000 years ago. All the ones that existed then are under at least 100 meters of sea water. The planet has been warmer and colder than it is now, with more and less CO2 in the atmosphere. Coral is ancient, it will still be around when humanity is gone.

This too will pass.
 
Actually it won't, the planet we humans will leave behind will be a polluted cesspool devoid of complex life.
