Most human beings are human beings because they are prejudiced toward the human race. But, the fact is that the human race, collectively, has impounded, destroyed and enslaved millions of species of life who inhabited this planet for millions of years before our species was injected into the ecosystem of Earth from the stars. If I inhabited the body of another species — or none at all — my opinion would be the same as the pigs in Animal Farm: “…all the evils of this life of ours spring from the tyranny of human beings”. — Lawrence R. Spencer. 2012

Animal Farm (1945) is a satirical novella (which can also be understood as a modern fable or allegory) by George Orwell, ostensibly about a group of animals who oust the humans from the farm on which they live. They run the farm themselves, only to have it degenerate into a brutal tyranny of its own. Here is a quote from the book:
“Now, comrades, what is the nature of this life of ours? Let us face it: our lives are miserable, laborious, and short. We are born, we are given just so much food as will keep the breath in our bodies, and those of us who are capable of it are forced to work to the last atom of our strength; and the very instant that our usefulness has come to an end we are slaughtered with hideous cruelty. No animal in England knows the meaning of happiness or leisure after he is a year old. No animal in England is free. The life of an animal is misery and slavery: that is the plain truth. 
Why then do we continue in this miserable condition? Because nearly the whole of the produce of our labour is stolen from us by human beings. There, comrades, is the answer to all our problems. It is summed up in a single word–Man. Man is the only real enemy we have. Remove Man from the scene, and the root cause of hunger and overwork is abolished for ever. Man is the only creature that consumes without producing. He does not give milk, he does not lay eggs, he is too weak to pull the plough, he cannot run fast enough to catch rabbits. Yet he is lord of all the animals. He sets them to work, he gives back to them the bare minimum that will prevent them from starving, and the rest he keeps for himself. Our labour tills the soil, our dung fertilises it, and yet there is not one of us that owns more than his bare skin.
Is it not crystal clear, then, comrades, that all the evils of this life of ours spring from the tyranny of human beings? Only get rid of Man, and the produce of our labour would be our own. Almost overnight we could become rich and free. What then must we do? Why, work night and day, body and soul, for the overthrow of the human race!”

I try to look at both sides of every issue. “Agenda 21” proposes that reducing the human population to 500 million would save the natural environment of the planet. As far as I can see, the human species did not come from this planet. Earth is a prison. We are dumped here has unwanted refuse from various planets and galaxies. Further, humans on Earth do not contribute to the well-being of the planet in any way whatsoever. We take, but we don’t give back. So, if humans really become extinct (for whatever reason) what would happen on the planet? Perhaps all the speculations made in the following main stream media (National Geographic) video “Aftermath: Population Zero” are not entirely accurate. But it gives us a general idea of how destructively parasitic we are as a life form, and ultimately, how meaningless we are as a biological entity within the ecosystem of this small and fragile planet.
