| http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#value | - Some ethicists, such as Peter Singer, have argued that it is an animal???s ability to suffer (or experience happiness) that gives it moral value, and that justifies it???s protection.[1] Thus, an ecosystem (lacking an ability to suffer in its own right) is not inherently valuable in itself, but only in it???s ability to impact the lives of the animals that live in it.
