Are these beliefs forms of anthropocentrism?
1. If a human gets attacked by a wild animal, then it’s okay for the human to kill the animal if it is necessary for survival.
2. If a wild animal enters a human settlement, then humans have a right to drive it back into its natural habitat because it is an invader.
If knowing the problems of the world will help offer solutions, what are the major problems?
And how do we solve these problems? What are the organizations or people helping already to help this world prosper? The ones I read of are permaculture, deep ecology and cybernetics.
Any books or websites with this info would help tremendously. Thank you.

In my English class my team and I were assigned a debate on anthropocentricism against biocentrism and my team was given to fight in favor of the first and against the latter. The thing is that we ware actually against the first and for the latter, now I need help on how to make good points on how the first is good and the second bad for it is hard to defend a point i do not believe in but that is what the challenge was, to defend a point you oppose, THanks.
