On Page 134 of Liberty and Tyranny, Mark Levin demonstrates how Enviro-Statists place the value of nature against and higher tha the value of humans: "If nature has 'intrinsic value' then nature exists for its own sake. Consequently, man is not to be preferred over any aspect of his natural surroundings. He is no better than any other organism and much worse than most because of his destructive existence. And so it is that the Enviro-Statist abandons reason for faith that preaches human regression and self-loathing. And he does so by claiming the moral high ground--saving man from himself and nature from man."
I agree that nature has intrinsic value on its own, but God did appoint humans with rule over the kingdom of nature for minerals, food, shelter, etc. Humans are still stewards of nature, but it must be a responsible stewardship.
