Additionally, environmental ethicists can assess the ethics of novel situations that could be enabled by AI, such as computer-based artificial life and artificial ecosystems.","PeriodicalId":45955,"journal":{"name":"Ethics Policy & Environment","volume":"11 1","pages":"139 - 143"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88720324","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, Katz argues that there is no positive case for de-extinction. He points out that many arguments that have been given in support of de-extinction have in fact already been shown deficient in the contexts of other, long-standing debates in environmental philosophy. The case for de-extinction, Katz argues, thus largely rests on zombie arguments that ‘should have been killed, buried, and forgotten long ago’ (Katz, 2022, p. 1). He then goes on to make a case against de-extinction efforts, focusing on the artifactuality of their products and their basis in views of human domination over nature. He argues, among other things, that making de-extinction part of environmental policy manifests ‘the most extreme worldview of management and control’ (Katz, 2022, p. 18; emphasis added) and promotes ‘a paradigm of domination’ of humanity over nature ‘in which nature is considered to be completely subordinate to human goals and desires’ (Katz, 2022, p. 18; emphasis added). Pursuing de-extinction, Katz claims, ‘will lead to an impoverished natural world, a world that is almost exclusively artifactual , a world that is the product of human design’ (Katz, 2022, p. 18; emphasis added). While agreeing with the ‘zombie argument’ step of Katz’s criticism, I disagree with the second step. In this commentary, I will argue that, given the scientific and technological limits of de-extinction, de-extinction does not entail a danger of ending up with ‘a world that is totally artifactual, devoid of the truly natural’ (Katz, 2022, p. 21). Also, I believe de-extinction efforts do not express a of human domination over nature at least not more than widely accepted practices such as conventional breeding and other accepted agricultural practices, or There be good be of the","PeriodicalId":45955,"journal":{"name":"Ethics Policy & Environment","volume":"54 1","pages":"113 - 115"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85370992","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

De-extinction is a project that arises out of the assertion of human domination of the natural world. Thus the acceptance of de-extinction as an environmental policy is an expression of a human-nature relationship that disvalues the natural world and subjugates nature completely to the interests of humanity.","PeriodicalId":45955,"journal":{"name":"Ethics Policy & Environment","volume":"64 1","pages":"81 - 103"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85691821","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The creation – or recreation – of ‘necrofauna,’ he says, ‘recycles old issues and debates in the field’ (p. 2). Many of the debates are ones in which Katz has played a prominent role. The same positions he has deployed against restoration and against geoengineering remain viable in the case of deextinction. ‘Arguments that already exist in the field of environmental philosophy can,’ he says, ‘ . . . serve as foundational criticisms of the process’ (p. 2). The question I wish to entertain is whether the fact there are zombies in the room is enough. Even if Katz is right about the haunt of familiar arguments and tropes, does this settle the question of how best to argue against deextinction? The question particularly interests me because it applies as much to some of what I have written against these types of technology as it does to Katz.","PeriodicalId":45955,"journal":{"name":"Ethics Policy & Environment","volume":"73 1","pages":"129 - 131"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90317609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The discussion is almost completely devoted to the ontological and epistemological issues, with the intention of avoiding the usual ethical questions that arise in the conversation surrounding de-extinction, including the welfare of de-extinct animals. However, while this may be well-motivated, the points raised are often inextricably entwined with matters of value, used to draw conclusions regarding the ethical permissibility of the practice, and hence make such a separation difficult if not impossible. In particular, Katz emphasizes the relationship between humans and nature, distinguishing between collective citizenship with other animals in nature vs. the domination and control of nature, meaning his arguments all return to ethics. Here we will argue that Katz is in error to exclude the interests of the animals themselves.","PeriodicalId":45955,"journal":{"name":"Ethics Policy & Environment","volume":"40 1","pages":"121 - 124"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78244393","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In ‘Considering De-Extinction’ he makes the analogous argument against ‘de-extinction’ (Katz, 2022). Central to his critique is a claim about the relationship between ontology and value, as well as an inference about the normative significance of that relationship for policy and practice. In this response we argue that Katz is correct that there is a connection between ontology and value that supports (to some extent) his critique of ‘de-extinction’ as a preservationist activity, but it does not apply to all cases of creating genetic likenesses of individuals from extinct species (hereafter CGL) for conservation purposes. There can be cases where CGL is well justified from a conservation perspective.
