Is there any other species that irrevocably destroys or is capable of irrevocably destroying itself and/or it's environment?

Well, a virus.

We can certainly have a devastating impact. Our nuclear arsenals alone, if all used, would determine our doom, turning earth into a radioactive wasteland. Cats sure cannot do that, and I'm glad they do not have the brains to develop nuclear weapons (I'm sure they would use it over a mouse), but we do. Our brain gave us that power. And there's no principle of nature preventing us from destroying our own livable environment.
