Ok.
You have an essentially living planet that will continue with or without humans on the surface.
Then you have billions of humans on the surface.
That clash can't be scientifically quantified at this time.
The Earth's orbit changes from elliptical to a more round path, it goes through cycles of ice ages, heat waves and drought etc. Those are the phases of the earth. Just because they are not condusive to the human element on the surface the planet will continue to go through these phases.
I think the history of data does not extend far enough back for us to claim humans are making this huge impact. I think the Earth is bigger than we are, more complex and more scientifically advanced than humans will ever be.
On the other hand, is this complex, living planet ready to deal with the unbelievably massive amount of humans on it's surface?
Nature will find a way. Only time will tell. Solar panels are not the answer. The Earth will do, we will adapt or the Earth will phase us out.
