A more charitable interpretation is that an advanced civilization would be more likely to ensure it's own longevity and durability by engaging in serious, disciplined conservation of resources. Pretty simple observation, really.

Their resources don't have to be the same ones you need. They might have technology to produce everything they need and disregard any other ecosystem, especially ours.
You are again just projecting what you/we need on them, like the parent comment.
