Do you really believe that every single environmental change and every single species extinction was planned by God as an essential step to the creation of humans?

Not at all. The Earth is an evolved and evolving planet. It is in a hostile universe, and its solar system has asteroids that are still available for making trouble. Ask the recently departed dinosaurs. Then locally (in time and place) are tsunamis, tornados, earthquakes and other killers, all necessary for the evolution process of Earth.

With that as the physical evolutionary force set up in the beginning, I believe God arranged for the genome to have remarkable responsiveness for adaptation to physical disasters, and at the same time a diversity of life forms. Chixulub nailed the dinos, but the little mammals survived because of this pre-planning.

Does God intervene? Not much if at all.
