Question
Read the motion and work in groups of three to identify the weaknesses in the following arguments. Carry out some research if necessary.
Answer
- Oversimplifies the link between endangered species and human well-being, ignoring their intrinsic value and broader ecological roles.
- Narrow focus on biodiversity's utility for human art and entertainment, neglecting its broader ecological significance and moral value.
- Anthropocentric argument based solely on human intelligence, disregarding the intrinsic worth of all species and ethical considerations beyond intellect.
In summary, these arguments suffer from oversimplification, narrow focus on human interests, and anthropocentrism, which may weaken their support for the motion advocating investment in protecting endangered species by every country.
