I think that if there come second Gem war it will be far more devastating than the first since Humanity will become an active participant this time around (because of modern technology, Humanity will be alerted in advance and will begin to mobilize) and because the Gem homeworld is technologically advanced, they might be in posession of highly destructive weaponry.

From a Human perspective it would be considered a Third World war and a war far more devastating than World war two. It als would be the longest war since the homeworld will hold their ground for quite awhile. logically if SU's Humans did invent the atomic bomb like us real world humans, we would use it against the Homeworld invaders.

If the Homeworld gems were to invade, before they would attack, they would first get a good look at how much has changed during their absence: http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/0011/earthlights2_dmsp_big.jpg

as a result they would likely choose to deal with both the Humans along with the Crystal Gems. To prevent any form of Human resistance, they would have to attack the infrastructure and try to cripple them (destroy cities and kill as many people as possibly) because 7-8 billion humans live on earth, homeworld warriors given this genocidal task would turn into butchers.

Even if Steven and the Crystal gems do manage to successfully drive of the Homeworld Gems, Earth would still come out as a mess. kindergarten would have janked up the environment and half the animal and plant life would be extinct. Ruins of Human cities would litter the landscape

human civilization would have been so devastated that it would simply collapse in the second gem war. all forms of human culture would have been erased following the war (no donuts,no videogames, no frybits, and NO TV). Humanity would have become and endangered species as well. endangered, and at it's lowest, as they are forced to return to an animalstic level in order to survive.

Steven and his surviving friends would probably know that it would take a miracle to get Humanity back on it's feet though i suspect that the CG's would be unwiling to help.
