The problem with your reasoning is that we do not face a diminishing supply of resources.

So they're giving away ocean front property because there's so much of it?

And we can go back to burning autumn leaves and removing pollution controls from cars because there's so much fresh air?

Shall I go on?

There is lots of ocean front property that is not being used, if you wish to be flippant. Plenty in Canada, Argentina, Chile, Somalia, the Arabian Peninsula, Antarctica. We could make considerable more by creating floating cities.

Nuclear power from Thorium reactors has been untouched, there are likely enormous stores of Helium III on the Moon, just the resources in this solar system will take thousands of years to exploit.

Air pollution is considerably less than it was 50 years ago. Yes, we are adding C02, but it make the plants grow faster.

You are limiting your thinking to this planet when there are unlimited resources off of it and we are only scratching the surface of what we have. Shall I go on?
