Cover Story: Human hubris is an ailment that contributes to the anthropogenic sixth mass extinction of the Earth’s biodiversity. Here, we call for a transformation to a more harmonious human–nature relationship that is grounded in mutual respect and principled responsibility, instead of utilitarianism and enlightened self-interest. Nature is not merely “red in tooth and claw”, but in fact a mixture of competition and cooperation that has driven forth the exuberant biodiverse and biocomplex web of life on Earth. We argue that the UN’s ‘Harmony with Nature’ program is an innovative and refreshing path for change. If we are to achieve harmony with nature, modern industrial society will need to abandon its anthropocentric ‘human supremacy’ mindset and adopt an ecocentric worldview and ecological ethics.
