Probably revolted at human overpopulation, the biggest and root cause of, amongst other things:
factory farming and industrial fishing, which slowly tortures to death 2-6 trillion fish every year, and enslaves 2-4 trillion animals (mostly fish and chickens) in torturous conditions every year;
mass-extinction causing anthropogenic climate-change;
#2 and #3 circle back to #1 really, and #1 is thanks to advances in medicine but also hugely by the invention of fertilizer based on... petroleum. New time traveler quest unlocked: go back to the Carboniferous period and unleash microbes to decay things faster.
