Don't forget changes in Solar Activity

People are pretty good at schitting in their nest, and even poisoning their immediate environment. But as a whole, mankind is just a pimple on the Earth's butt. In a million years, whoever has become the dominant species on the planet will find no more sign that we were here than we find of Triceratops.
