I'm not even arguing from an environmental conservation standpoint.
I don't see a problem with a natural resource being utilized; it just needs to be closely regulated.
"Eleventy billion years" is going to start getting shorter if we're tossing it at everything, like we did with oil, as Earth's population continues to grow.
7 billion at the end of October? How long before we're hitting 8,9,10 billion?
All the while, developing countries continue to grow, using a larger percentage of the finite resource.
