We were once under the curse but Jesus became the curse for us, however we still labor because of the curse of creation. He wont take us out of that until His return. So to answer your oblique question, the creation and its systems cant progressively get better because we are here since, by election, only those chosen from the foundation of the earth are pardoned from the judgment of the curse that came on all of creation when Adam sinned and that wont be relieved until the firey renovation. Amen.
The Millennial reign of Christ sees the removal of the curse from Nature.
A New Heavens and Earth are created after the final rebellion to remove the taint of it.

The Millennial reign of Christ sees the removal of the curse from Nature.Yet all of humanity does not become Christian. The final rebellion occurs at the end of the 1,000 yrs.
