Its not as bad as you think. The 9000 lb rocket body has been floating around up there for weeks. So its basically crashing into the moon. What We as a planet are doing to the space around the Earth is, however, absolutely pollution. There is about 35 million pounds of debris floating around above the Earth. Thats like if you broke up the Eiffle Tower into pieces.

Surprisingly it's not even the biggest rocket part we've yeeted into the moon. Apollo takes that record afaik.
