Yep, that's how evolution works. It's natural selection working. We'll keep forking the planet until it becomes too costly to do it. Anyway, the will to survive while profiting from it, will become a pretty good incentive to come up with some good alternatives either here on Earth or somewhere else. Otherwise we'll hit the Big Filter.
OTOH, it's true, it's not looking good for us in the long run. It may well be that the water already started to boil and we are the frog.
I know I am being hyper-cynical but this is how I feel very often. When I read about human endeavor of settling at Mars, I do commend the engineering skill but I also see the irony that the same human race couldn't protect the most suitable and hospitable planet.
