Not that I disagree with much of this, but is there a hypothesis as to what exactly we're doing that's causing the biodiversity collapse if not for the altered atmosphere, climate chaos, and heating (which seems to be implied)? Do they suspect that it primarily from the land/chemical/pesticide (ab)use or something else?

Not an expert, but I think it's a mix of pollution, pesticides, habitat loss, intensive fishing, etc.
When we have energy, we just transform the world to optimize some metric (profit, comfort, etc), and transforming wild places just breaks balance and makes species disappear.
