I'd be pretty appalled and disgusted to be honest. My view on humanity is... less than positive.

I HIGHLY doubt the human race will go extinct any time soon, but I can be hypothetical.
Well assuming this alien is part of a race driven by logic not unlike our own, I would believe them to be a species of extraordinary potential. Every year they progressed inch by inch in technology, their society in constant flux with constants and variables. I would be impressed how far the species would go to further their progress in the chain of order that is the universe.
Then, I would blow up the planet because I was part of the technologically superior alien race than could drive the humans to extinction. Short of that, the humans aren't going anywhere for a long, long time.

I don't know how I would look at humanity objectively. As a human, I look at us as a force of overall good and a superior force to that of nature.
Ambivalent. Likely, my culture evolved along similar lines. We just happened to get lucky and not nuke ourselves before we could preserve our species. One must remember that the first goal of a species, in general, is to preserve their race. The first goal of each member of that species is to preserve their specific genetic line. That often means competition for mates and resources. In the case of humanity, they took that competition a few years too far and ended up falling in to extinction. In the case of 'my' people, we managed to resolve our resource competition, either through expansion in to space, development of alternate resources, or a war that didn't result in nuclear holocaust.
Admittedly, many humans do seem to be rather stupid, but they seem like they were a remarkably inventive and resourceful race, which seemed to make up for that relative stupidity on many occasions. Violent, yes, but most young races are. It's a shame they couldn't preserve their race before destroying themselves.

Bill Maher & Charlie Brooker have helped me give up on humanity entirely. I hope our race doesn't last another 1000 years, thought it surely will...
Eh, humanity was OK. I've yet to see another species do any better... except the ants of course.
It's too bad the humans didn't devote more time to fighting the ants, after all they were vastly outnumbered and yet it still took them by surprise when the ants rose up and took over.

I'd think the universe had a very close shave. Humans were merciless, killed their own kind, and spread across the world alarmingly fast, killing and destroying whatever lay in their path and setting up huge hives everywhere. This made them viciously effective. Massive in fighting encouraged survival of the fittest and most brutal. Upon seeing any unrecognised life forms, humanity would go into a bloody rage.
Thank our alien god, kryten, that they foolhardily scrapped their major space flight plans in 2011. Otherwise, they would of spread across the universe like a plague of locusts.

Probably something like, "hmm, they're just like we were, except [insert crisis here] led us to reform our global policies so that [insert world-threatening problem here] would never threaten our existence again. I guess these guys weren't so lucky."
Then I'd read their internet records and be like, "lolwut, this species is so full of self-loathing, it's almost funny. You'd think a race so aware of its own flaws would do something to fix them!"

I'd pity the loss of a great civilization and mourn them. Clearly this "Humanity" has accomplished great things. While some of them were definitely bad people, a ton of good people died with them.
Zork: Hey, Gork, look at this Olivia Wilde creature.
Gork: She is a fine specimen of the human female, I dare say my mating impulses are being evoked at her sight!
Vork: Gentlemen, we can rebuild her.

You "people" are nothing more than dirty apes foolish enough to call themselves Men.
Humans are much better than you, for they possess souls, and were made by Us rather than by random chance and a bizarre process you fools call "evolution".
You disgust Us. It is fortunate this world is but a computer simulation of that dark time.

well if the were all peacefull and efrything is almost perfect , our violence coud destroy them because if they figure out they can take from others to gain for their benifit then there coud come crime among them and they would be as f***ed up as we were or become or somthing like that.
I think they'd see a deeply flawed, yet amazing and an ingenious race. If the defining human trait is to adapt and to love, then I hope said aliens would clone us back into existence.
Sure we've made a mess of the planet. Sure we're responsible for a lot of death and extinction. But we're improving on a scale never seen in Earths history. We've had millions of breakthroughs in every science we have a field for in this last 100 years alone.
PS. I don't believe we are altering the climate. The climate has always shifted at various ferocity since the planet began. This is no difference. There was a period of warning in the medieval times, roughly 700 years before that, and roughly 700 years before that. It happens, we're just going through a period of warming. The planet changes, and all the people that are constantly 'MY WORLD IS CHANGING AND I DON'T LIKE IT' need to wise up, because increased CO2 emissions isn't destroying the world. It isn't helping it sure enough probably, but it's not the cause.
