Its funny - on the further end of the spectrum, PETA feels that keeping all aquaria is 'not environmentally friendly - nor ethical'. So - they would not support 'captive breeding'. I would suggest as did @Hemmdog that people pretending that captive breeding is 'the only solution' will be surprised 20 years from now. At that point - captive breeding and keeping fish in general will probably be extremely restricted - if allowed at all. Look at the movement to close zoos in this country.
It's not environmentally friendly and never will be unless somehow aquarists can play a big part in rebuilding and helping reefs. The whole being a human thing isn't very environmentally friendly... We are the ultimate invasive species
