Never, dumbass. The separation of "man" from "nature" is a fundamental ideological stumbling block in philosophical discourse. Man is not the penultimate product of Mother Nature. Modern man is simply another branch that has sprouted from her trunk; we are at the mercy of seasons which span many millennia, and can only hope that we survive the next planetwide autumn.

There is none. That which is bound by natural law is still beholden to nature. There is no escaping nature, because anything which is purported to escape its nature only did so because that was in its nature; it's not that nature can be mastered, it's only that we discover new facets to admire.

Since Modernity. Since Bacon and Descartes and Spinoza.

You can blame climate change on all three of those men, by the way, and you can also blame it on all men who are their disciples, which is nearly all of Modern thinkers.

Baconian method could be theoretically compartmentalized by Catholicism, it just wasn't because the people rubbing their hands together (I don't just mean Jews) wasn't to aggravate efforts toward this by memeing that the two were antagonistic so much that people began to believe it. The Church could have remained the steward of science. Really, though, one major issue was the Reformation, which led to Bacon's Protestantism, as Protestantism is the left hand of secularism.
