Because that level of environmental collapse is many lifetimes away, if it's coming at all.

One of the benefits of humans dying out, which everyone seems so sure about, is that as humanity dwindles, so too will the continued damage to the ecosystem.

May not stop it, but would certainly hamper the acceleration of things.

Unfortunately, not super relevant. The earth->Venus scenario is about a positive feedback loop. So stopping our emissions after that tipping point doesn't help.

Yeah though we are really good at surviving as long as there is anything at all to survive on.
