When the white man first went to the Americas, they killed (purposefully as well as inadvertently) most of the Native Americans causing mass reforestation of the Americas. This caused the CO2 in the atmosphere to drop, but its been downhill (as in, rising) since then. Many are worried about the political ramifications of declaring an Antropocene epoch but I think it's entirely rational that murdering citizens of the Americas is a way to stop Climate Change. Let's start with Linda.

The Halocene epoch is also known as the Clovis Comet which got that name by making on impact on the Clovis people (ie wiping them out), which were the original native Americans. The conquered people you refer to are/were direct descendants of the yellow man, they just happened to first come to the new world over land from the other side. I'd also state that all throughout history conquered people were usually if not almost always killed or enslaved.
plus, even if 10,000 Aztecs
could have defeated 490 Spainyards on horseback, the 'native American' Aztecs were not only murdering their fellow 'native Americans' for lack of wealth (food mostly), they forced them to stand in lines for hours and wait for their hearts to be ripped out of their chests while still beating.... just to prove to everyone else that they controlled the sun and the moon (ie the heavens) and pull off the lie of all lies, that they were Gods and science wasn't important otherwise the masses would know an eclipse is natural and not the end of the world it was pumped up to be. Curiously noting how little has changed
It's an interesting thought to instead of how many conquered people were killed to wonder how many 'native Americans' were saved directly by Jesus Christ and indirectly by monotheism and animal sacrifice as a preferred voice to the Gods over human sacrifice. Imagine if the white man had built a massive temple to not only celebrate murder but in the name of exploitation, oh my how how they oh my how unforgiveable! Oh, the people in the America's had already done that??? I guess it's totes kewl then. Imagine how many heads rolled down these temple walls.... Imagine the street literally gorged with blood flowing like the salmon of Capistano
