So let me get this straight. Using your example...if we DO find a cure or treatment from a plant or animal source, but it depletes it, are you saying we should not use it?

Uh...no.

We'll agree to disagree then. Thankfully for us, science disagrees with you.

What the hey are you talking about?

Unless I read your reply wrong, you think we should or shouldnt use an animal or plant even if it depletes it for a cure or treatment of disease? I read it as you think we shouldnt. I may have misread

Story of your life, I fear. It's pretty obvious what her whole argument was.

You would think they would be against drilling, since it destroys the ecosystem of the area. Alaska is such a beatiful state, and sad that the people there want to ruin it with drilling.

Because, unlike you, they know that much less than 1% of the land will be affected... seems worth it to not have to import as much oil from people who hate us.

What do you mean?

Our way of life is based on oil consumption, therefore we will find and extract any and all oil fields on the face of the planet.

Global peak oil production has been reached.

I have absolutely no idea what point you just made.

this oil should be saved for about 10 years down the road, when oil prices are really nice.
