I see what you're saying cdelena - On the broadest scope of things, human life on the planet Earth is barely a blip on the radar screen. I suppose the scope I'm working with is both environmental harmony and human happiness together. In that sense it just seems obvious to me that we're headed up shit creek in a speed boat.

Nature doesn't have a defense against a nuclear winter, and it just seems logical to me that there's a limited supply of what humans need to survive. I'm not just talking about oil. Plant & animal life, the atmosphere, richness of the soil for farming ( I never researched this one in particular so don't flame ) all affect life on this planet directly.
I think what you are missing here is that running out of "what humans need to survive" is nature's way to "take care of it."
