I’m looking at this as if Humans have made the world for humans. Which we have. That’s the opposite of creationism, and the opposite of whatever pseduoreligious spiritualist nonsense people like you push.
We are not innocent equals in this world. We are responsible for the death of at least 75% of species since the 1800s. We have the exclusive power to control all other species. They exist at our whim, and it is our sole responsibility to continue making them exist. Which we have taken on over the last 50,000 years in the way of permanently changing what species are, how they grow, and wholesale inventing new ones to serve our needs. And we did most of that with a fucking bicameral mind.
We are not equal to trees. Trees cannot do anything we can do.
How unable to witness the world’s beauty as its own.
Humans exist on a survivable vaneer created through chance and time, and we will equally cease to exist if that small biome is disrupted.
Your earlier comment states we could wipe the trees from existence on a whim, and you are completely correct, however how long would we survive without them?
Could you be so shallow to believe that the progress of other humans is so great, that we do not need the very nature that keeps us alive?
Their purpose is whatever purpose we have for them. We could eliminate them at any time on a whim.
You are looking at this as if the whole world was made for humans. You perhaps a creationist?

How narrow your view is.
How sad and singular its path.

Sadness, all of it.
That is an incredibly colonialist capitalist attitude and it’s exactly what got us into this ecological crisis.
You objectively do not know what either of those words mean.
Oh, sweetie. Honey.
