We've been 'polluting' this world for over 2,000 years (I dont know how many exactly, but I'll go by the current year + lots ), why the sudden belief that our technological develpoment is to blame?
The people who die from hurricanes, in which the numbers of them are increasing form global warming every year isn't enough for you? And since when do we need human casualties to understand that this a huge problem?

2,000 years? A little bit overdramatic, don't you think?
Starting from stone age to the industrial times the pollution was nothing compared with the pollution in these days, because in those times the human population wasn't so big as it is right now, trees weren't cut that much as they are right now, and people weren't dependent so much from oil and natural gas as they are right now.
