Opposing the idea that humans are the center or most important thing in the universe.
From Greek 'anti-' (against) + 'anthropos' (human) + 'kentron' (center). This philosophical term became more common in the 20th century as environmentalism and ecology challenged human-centered worldviews.
This word represents a huge shift in how we think about Earth—instead of seeing nature as just here for us, antianthropocentric thinking recognizes that other species and ecosystems have value in themselves.
