I've always thought it was pretty arrogant of humans to think that we could really do any long term damage to the earth. Having existed only a blink of an eye, geologically speaking, our impact on this planet is extremely minor. If we as a race were to "poof" out of existance tomorrow, very little trace of our existance would remain in just a few short years (IE: ten thousand years).
Even to assume we could doom ourselves to extinction is vastly overstated. How could we possibly eliminate every human being on earth? It's preposterous and highly unlikely. At best we might wipe out the majority of humanity by way of war and/or disease, but without fail the human race can and will survive.
