This is not even remotely true. Millions of species have arisen and gone extinct in the years between the chicxulub impact and homo sapiens.
Human activity has resulted not only in billions of humans existing who otherwise wouldn't have been able to, but also the artificial preservation of species like the stupid panda who would have naturally gone extinct long ago. We can barely even keep them alive in captivity.
Humans are part of nature. Climate alarmists hold yet another conspicuously religious view that humans are somehow special and different than the rest of nature. Guess who else thinks that? Conservative christians. Uh oh!

Read about the Holocene Extinction. The current rate of extinction far surpasses the normal background rate.
There is no reason we need more than 8 billion humans. It benefits nobody, not even humans. Just less space and resources for everyone. Nevermind that ecosystem collapse has implications for our happiness, survival, and prosperity.
Saying humans are a part of nature, while technically true, glosses over the important truth that unlike every other species, we are self-aware and
capable of knowing better. We can choose to manage our own population and not breed like a bunch of fucking bacteria.
