I would agree with that except I think that people feel that the Earth is so, so large that nothing that MAN can do to her (short of nuclear holocaust) has ANY effect on her. But if you visualize a globe of the earth on a desk then the whole atmosphere is only as thick as a coat of paint. That's when you realize that ALL the exhaust gases from ALL the internal combustion engines in the world are enough to adversely affect that thin veneer of Earth atmosphere. It is delicate.
