Do not take more life than you help create. :p

Eat and apple, plant the seeds, make many trees.. Let the apple fall, and it might die in the shadow of the mother tree..
Or sprout, as the strongest seed becomes one new tree.
Still one would have created more than the one, one took by "killing" the apple.  ..killing the potential life.
Even balance would hold up.

Ah the gentle nurturers, raoming the soft vallies, foraging in morning dew crystal'd wild orchards. Harvesting and replenighing amongst the serenity of thier symbiotic dream.
Fuck it. Wheres the Production? Why plant and eat when you can eat and eat and eat!?

Drive the car, burn the gasoline, bury organic matter deep in earth so that one day it creates more crude oil....
As modern humans, we have always took more than we gave back to our earth. That's why we're fucking it over so badly. The resources we use are not renewable. Too bad for us it will cause our own demise.

This post depends on the assumption that all life that exists is that life which we, in our primitive understanding of the universe, recognize: that is, carbon-based life that we can easily observe.
I agree with the sentiment, though. We should all choose to nurture rather than consume wherever possible.

True dat....  It is all based on assumptions and primitive understandings.... 
I also agree with Gomp's sentiment....

Funny, but that is not how I would apply the same principle..
However, If one wanted to eat shrimps, and give back more or as much as one take, then captive some shrimps. Breed them, and return the one you took, back to the sea. Then for every shrimp breed and eaten, release one to nature as eggs, or how ever they reproduce.
Might not work, but at least the possibilities is there. I did not exactly think this shrimp example fully through..

Well said, but then in that case, we re-arrange much faster than what we re-arranged can re-re-arrange itself back into when we can then re-arrange. If you catch my drift.

Well, until another meteor, asteroid, or comet comes along.... Those put us to shame - in the sense of speedy rearrangements.... 
But yeah, we are just fucking up the planet for the future life that will be here.... Just playing on semantics....
