Anyway, there probably hasn't been as much damage to the planet caused by any other substance as crude by a long shot.

If you want to make a case, start with photosynthesis. The plant basically captures the carbon in the atmosphere. It stores it, even after death, until we dig it up in the form of oil and release it back into the atmosphere..

In short, putting back into the atmosphere what has been captured millions of years ago..

Because the layers of sediment build up over years under ground we are basically taking a million of years of built up carbon captured through photosynthesis and releasing it back into the atmosphere in a time span 1/10,000 of the time period ...

Sound logical, or total BS L Gilbert ????

As much as taking a million years of sunlight and bombarding the planet with it over 100 years.

No no no. You claimed petroleum was the most destructive substance on the planet. Is it or is water? Prove it.
