We may not all agree on the answer to this question, but here are some things to consider:

The only way to answer that will be answered a few hundred, thousand, or even million years from now. What we may find is that the human race is no longer alive and all that we left behind a thin layer of sediment that is composed of radioactive hydrocarbons.

Right now, the average cow in India has at least two plastic bags in its stomach. Each square mile of the earth's surface has at least one item of plastic debris. We have had accidents like Tepco, Chernobyl, Three Mile Island, Exxon Valdez, BP Gulf Oil Spill, and others. Also, nuclear subs from both the US and Russia have sank. We produce enough plastic bottles every year to circle the globe many times. We also produce enough radioactive material each year to kill every living creature on the planet.

All this stuff has to go somewhere,and it is going nowhere but into our environment.

Think of our environment as being your living room, because our environment is our "living room." So, do you want to sit and watch your favorite How_does_littering_effect_the_environmentand eat your dinner while radioactive petroleum sludge is seeping from your carpet?

That has "sort-of" already happened. The Love Canal in New York State was a city built on top of industrial waste. And, many innocent children developed leukemia, higher than the national average. They finally abandoned the city because it was too toxic.

There is no way, at the present moment, for us to abandon the earth. So if we don't clean up, we will have to get out, one way or another.

The only way to answer this question is to come back from future.

Wildlife organizations often report significant fatalities among mammals, birds, and reptiles due to litter-related incidents.
