I think drilling for different things inside the Earth, (oil, gold, etc.) can't be good for the planet. It's like extracting spare parts in a car and then expecting that car to drive the same way.
Am I wrong? What if it takes like... oh, I don't know...2008 years before we feel the effects on a level we can comprehend? Shouldn't we so something about it now, before we are in the stage where we see it on every news channel with a doomsday headline?
Bling bling, and sliver, and metal is great, but... aren't we kind of altering or shifting the Earth's mass? I'm no scientist, but we're messing with gravitons and things we as a scientific community don't even have a handle on yet.
What if, with all our drilling and excavation, we end up doing something so drastic that we can't go back? What then?
