A great article from Byron Smith's wonderful blog, Nothing New Under The Sun. I try not to repost too often but this is too good to miss.
Why Christians take the extra-human creation seriously:

arrival of humanity, God declared his handiwork "good" and blessed it
(Genesis 1).
2. God sustains and cares for all life, not just
human life. Psalm 104 and Job 38-41 celebrate the created order in its
bounty, complexity and divine providence outside of reference to human
