It's not true, despite population increase number of people dying of starvation goes down https://sites.tufts.edu/wpf/famine/ the reason of starvation in modern times is political, not production shortage.

So in all the thousand years mankind has been around we had to wait for the 1800 to be rescued from all famine waves, yet 3 centuries, a large portion of countries still hasn't managed to have been saved from such trends.

How many farming fields and insects have been destroyed with chemicals and genetic modifications from that wonderfull revolution?

Your getting your own points confused. Chemicals (generally salt) destroyed plenty of farmland in the past leaving places desolate.

Humans have been destroying habitats for as long as we find ourselves in the fossil record.

Never forget, Europe used to be covered in forests! Big, old, sturdy ones!
