Humans are. The possible reasons you cite are but subsidiary. The MAIN REASON is OVERPOPULATION. Conservative religious wackos, with their anti-birth-control and anti-abortion stances, and liberal pussies with their unwarranted concern about "saving the children" (so they can grow up to birth even more starving children) create a social attitude of breed, grow, build, breed, grow, build... that leads to resource depletion and wars, and unmanageable pollution.

People are encouraged to breed, and to NOT limit family size. They are encouraged to breed with no thought of consequence, just like do cats, rats, and dogs. Natural processes serve to limit other animals' population growth beyond ecological carrying capacity. Not so with humans, who devote their energies to trying to thwart natural processes.

It's not the evil corporations (evil as they are) and corrupt governments (corrupt as they are) that are the problem, it is the average stupid, primitive thinking human creating and supporting those dysfunctional institutions that is the problem.

The corporations and governments are just reflections of human stupidity in general.

We, the Human Race, bear ultimate responsibility. We buy from the corporations and we vote for the politicians and legislators. WE are responsible.

Our climate is influenced by how we choose to live - all of us- how we use our fuels, our water and our land.

We can not wait for our politicians to notice this problem and act on it, they will do it only if people push them to do it.
