The only way Earth isn't environmentally fucked is if we become an interplanetary species, move 70% of humans elsewhere, and designate most of Earth as a sort of National Park.

Nobody is gonna clean up their act during their own industrial revolutions and no one can credibly make them

at one point the earth was in a nice balance and then a new organism arrived that filled the entire atmosphere with poisonous gas

that poison was oxygen

earth can recover from a lot

we can't turn the planet into venus unless we import hydrocarbons from off world anyway, all that carbon in gas deposits came from the atmosphere when earth had lots of life 

and at the  point we can import gas from off world we just do industry on mars to heat it up instead as terraforming
