I believe the planet would benefit greatly from our complete absence.
Benefit how? Seems to me the only reason planets exist are to be mediums by which intelligence is able to arise. Humans are by far the most important resource the Earth has ever produced. Without humans the Earth is just a rock with un-important sub-lifeforms roaming around. The Earth is lucky to have humans, we are what makes the Earth semi-relevant in the universe.
That is a brand of arrogance I haven't seen in a long time.

Except for the glaringly obvious, they got there in a boat, they could leave in a boat. To more resource rich lands.
Just like ...We are going to leave Earth in 'boats' and find more 'islands'
Sigh

The difference being we have an abundance of food on the planet more than enough to feed the entire population. We have a distribution problem that is not the same issue that is surmised to have happened on Easter Island.

I think the only way to reverse the the downward spiral is to bomb humanity back to stone age.

OK. Well, word of advice: TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT!! What we have done for the past 150+ years isn't working, and it's not going to.
