manifest destiny - in defense of moral elitism
If humans are the proper saviors of Earth because we're the only beings who can sufficiently understand that problems, then only a small subset of humans are the proper saviors of Earth because only a small subset of humans can sufficiently understand the problems. If there are no proper saviors of Earth or it's not us, humanity doesn't matter.
