摘要

两种截然不同的观点，即人类是“生态系统的一部分”(即人类所利用的生态系统的组成部分)和人类是“地球上的毒瘤”，根据当前对生物圈的掠夺进行了检验。结论是，两者都不能描述我们在地球上的长期生态角色，充其量只能类似于地球系统共同进化的一个部分。

Homo sapiens: cancer or parasite?

Two contrasting ideas, that humans are 'part of the ecosystem' (i.e. a constitutive ele- ment of the ecosystems they exploit) and that humans are 'a cancer on the Earth', are examined in the light of the current despoliation of the biosphere. It is concluded that neither can describe our longer-term ecological role on Earth, which, at best, will have to resemble that of a co-evolved par- asite of the earth's systems.
