"Our civilization, our very way of life, heavily depends on X" does not imply "harvesting resource X is ethical" or "harvesting resource X is sustainable". Your argument is understandable from a bleeding-heart perspective, but misses out on the incredibly callous exploitation which capitalists undertake.
