At least the humans generate their own energy it seems. Parasites should go die.
Humans are a unique species, it sounds like the majority of the races in whatever intergalactic empire are emotionless. From a utilitarian ethical perspective, what QB is doing is absolutely correct.

And that's the real face of this series. Gen Urobuchi has taken after Shōji Kawamori and his environmentalist agenda. *shudder*.
I wouldn't say this is about environmentalism, it is very clear this is an issue of ethics.

Also, consider this: it may be possible for mahou shoujo to produce energy, AND not become witches.
