Are scientists telling us that the natural world is going to collapse due to environmental problems caused by us

Scientists speak of the sixth extinction, sea level rise, climate change, deforestation, coral reef bleaching, water and air pollution, ocean acidification, invasive species, desertification, water scarcity, wildlife smuggling, fisheries collapse, … and the list goes on and on. What is this? Are scientists telling us that the natural world is going to collapse due to environmental problems caused by us, human beings? Do you think the global human society will collapse because of these environmental issues, or, do you think humans have the capacity to solve these issues with their technology, inventiveness, and intelligence? Will humans become extinct, or not? Watch the video posted in our week 7 module (youtube video’s URL link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujkNla0L8Tc&t=98s) and investigate about this topic. The essay must be written entirely in your OWN words. The essay must be at least three paragraphs long, and each paragraph must contain at least five sentences (you can write more than three paragraphs and more than five sentences per paragraph if you wish to do so). If needed, you can quote, but this does not count towards the last tally of number of paragraphs and sentences being required from your OWN writing. Use citations in parenthesis, APA style, if you paraphrase information from other authors (note: paraphrasing is not copying and changing a few words from other authors’ writings, it is writing it in your OWN words to explain the authors’ writings). Also, in your assignment use at least three references to investigate about this topic (you can use the video as one reference); use APA style and list your three references at the end of your essay.
