This is not about the value of human life mine or yours. It is about the place of people in the natural world. As part of intelligence people have come up with the idea they have a divine right to exist.
We do not, the idea that our death is more "important" to the system than that of a goldfish is absurd.
Just because we can change aspects the environment does not mean we should.
