Earth belongs to whom ?

Some time ago there was tough fight for gases and fuels below the earth. People or companies take possession of natural resources and exploit them at will and Governments get pittance while the companies make billions from extracting natural resources in form of oil , coal, minerals or forests These companies belong to private owners whose main concern is to gain profits.
Mankind is the sufferer
Who has right to sell reserves of minerals , oil, gas to private companies or exploit themselves unhindered because two third of the mankind is too young to understand anything and rest are powerless.
Otherday there was legal battle that someone extracted more minerals but how the minerals start belonging to one person or one company ?
There is time to give a thought before its too late that mother earth is depleted of its resources for the greed of some people and companies.
Gandhi ji once said "Nature produces enough to mans needs but not for its greed".
