You can make this statement being true by moving your definition of "nothing" from economics to lay-people common sense, but then we'd be outside of a territory where we can obtain any actually reasonable observations.
> Nature is zero sum
What is "nature"? Observable universe from now to heat death of the universe? Yes. Earth in near hundred years? No.
> Robbery is also an economic transaction, and it can be positive sum if for example you don't notice.
What? How does the outcome of a transaction change depending on whether it's observed or not? Does it involve quantum particles of trees falling in the middle of desolate forests?
> That does not mean it's a good thing.
My comment didn't state anything about good or bad: these are very stupid terms and using them can't bring anything but loud voices and hurt feelings into a conversation.
Nature is zero sum, economies are not valued in those terms because people prefer houses to trees etc.
