@erik this is partially false. Due to industrialism and capitalism we are killing/extinguishing millions on animal and vegetal species that are not only useful for our ability to inhabit earth (aka the ecosystemic services they provide) but have their own intrinsical value.

Sure, earth doesn't care and variety of species can and maybe will branch out at some point in a very distant future, but that doesn't negate the fact that we can mourn the loss of todays species-variety for their own sake. And we can do this without being "human centrered".
