If no new species can evolve, but (as not even creationists dispute) species can go extinct, then the extinction of species over time causes biodiversity to inexorably trend toward zero.

They believe the end is imminent and therefore there is no point to save any of it
I was watching a lot of debates during the GW Bush years and the basic common denominator belief among creationists is that God made the universe for us to use and have fun with. If we run out of resources, surely God has a plan for that, maybe he will just magic up some more stuff for us. Some maybe believed in the rapture, but didn’t say it. Most probably never even considered the possibility of resources running out or species going extinct. But everyone very openly said that “God made this for us” and therefore we shouldn’t shy away from “doing his will”.
Its so backwards from how I read genesis to. God gave us a job, we are supposed to take care of this shit
coulda sworn there was a part about fracking the garden of Eden in here somewhere…
Let me educate you about religion: angels love acid rain. It is their favorite thing.
