Are humans phobic to the mother earth?

This is the sad reality of generation,we leave no opportunity to harm our life giver. This is a picture from the River front park of Ahemadabad,where a small opening of the earth is all filled with human created artificial wastes. You don’t find any waste on the cemented footpaths, because they are so called “development” of humans. Humans are so much concerned about their artificial creations that they can go to any extent to “protect” even at the cost of nature.

Why do we hate mother earth so much?
When will we realise that we are the ones who is going to suffer?
We being phobic to mother earth will be the reason of our own destruction.
