What an arrogant presumption - so very human!
The 'laws of nature' are universal and fundamental. Assuming a million years of human life on this planet Sol 3, that is roughly 0.02% of this (young!) planet's life span to date. The dinosaurs had 250 times that much.

That humanity developped technology, the possibility to exploit resources, is a natural evolutionary process. So is the development of 'sentients' with the capability to think about the consequences of their doing.

Not to bend to laws of nature is not an available option


If something is arrogant, that answer sure is.
Typical human presumption that humans rule everything and that everything should bend to human will. Justifying human behaviour.
That humans (ab)use techology and exploit (in a destructive way) earth and nature has nothing to do with evolution.
That dinosaurs had more time also means nothing. Dinosaurs lived in and with nature. Humans live above nature and only overexploit and destroy it. Humans probably won't make it as long as the dinosaurs becouse at the rate humans are going their will be nothing left anymore.
Humans are a freak, a fault, in evolution. Humans stand outside evolution. They probably don't even belong on this planet.
