I agree totally. The economics on other planets are just not compelling yet. Did you know Mt. Everest is mostly quartz? It might be a giant upside down gold mine. I don't know whether to do top slicing or bottom slicing. I think we should dump the waste in the Ganges. It is pretty dirty anyway. Seen one mountain, seen them all. Same as crystal pure pristine wilderness lakes teeming with rare species of game fish and fragile creosolic ecosystems. After all a forest fire could wipe it all out in a day. Such sacred cows of leafy Redwood frippery can't possibly compete with downtown New York's need for electrical power on a Saturday night. We must remember that man is an animal species which has to have its needs fulfilled too. What people don't seem to realize is that all life is just an adaptation of a resource-parasitic biota to conditions they help to create. In other words they cheat in effect to give the impression they are needed in some way other than in and of themselves. Man has to learn to live in balance with this insatiable greed for ever more mechanized and luxurious lifestyle. The best way to do this, is to forget trying to rationalize it and just give in to the natural evolutionary spiral of construction and destruction. There are things we should try to ignore. Small defenseless things that bit, crawl itch, or can't fight back, large things that will probably be extinct in a few years even if we don't try too hard to wipe them out, and really obnoxious predators who bite and scratch and kill other animals. They obviously kill other creatures, so they have it coming.
