Yes Gennaro, I think you are correct in that the planet would surely be 
better off without us. Much better.

But I doubt we are going to give up our home that easily, so we would be 
wise to concentrate on how to better live on this blue/green ball spinning 
through time and space rather than dream about some kind of escape capsule 
that we will likely never be able to engineer... or afford, for even a 
handful of the billions of us.

Ron I'm not sure how vital us humans are to earth.
Maybe somebody can remind me but from what I remember us humans have
been on the earth for about 1% of it's life. And who knows how long we
last.

In time the human infestation of earth may be remembered as a short
lived irritant in earths long life.

And just to mix things up a little, I think it is the epitome of
arrogance to think humans are the only space travelers in this vast
universe.
My bets are that we are a designated nature preserve very much like
certain cavemen tribes are in places like the Andaman islands or
Borneo. The aliens are keeping us isolated so we are not tainted by
the issues of modern society (their modern society).
