This is an incorrect statement.

For example, when water goes down the drain does it disappear? Natural Resources are not limited... This is a common misconception...

A lot of people think the oil is about to run out. This is also incorrect; just oil that is cheaply obtained because it is so close to the top.

Air is also not limited.

I do agree that polution and taking care of the air is important since we need a clear sky to let the good rays shine through.

But to say "Here on earth there is only so much" is a PC statement to make but its simply not true.

Matter is not created nor destoryed... basic Physics.
