Investigating the Ethical Arguments Found in Biodiversity and Animal Right.
This paper assesses the ethical and utilitarian arguments concerning animal rights in respect to global biodiversity. In respect to the question of biodiversity, it is questionable as to whether there is an ethical position as to why animals should be preserved, or whether humanity justifies their support of animal rights due to purely self- serving reasons. This paper investigates whether animal rights in this instance is created out of concern for the animals themselves, or whether the argument is merely justification for preserving the welfare of the human race. 5 pgs.
