Question

if someone says, \earth and all of its contents were created for the betterment of human beings, so as long as something is good for humans, it is good for the whole earth,\ what ethical perspective would he or she hold?

○ envirocentric

○ biocentric

○ anthropocentric

○ ecocentric

Explanation:

The statement prioritizes human well-being as the central value and frames Earth's purpose around humans, which aligns with anthropocentrism—an ethical perspective that centers human interests and judges actions by their benefit to humans. Envirocentric/ecocentric focuses on environmental systems, while biocentric centers all living beings, neither matching the human-focused claim.

Answer:

anthropocentric
