Biocentrism (ethics) is an idea that all creatures in the world have value, and that their rights, interests, and needs should be respected and taken into consideration when making decisions, even if it means changing our own plans. Think of it like this: living things, including humans, animals, plants, and other life forms, are at the center of our moral universe. That means that we should always try to be kind and caring, look at the impact our actions have on all living things, and try to make decisions that everyone can live with.
