In the Anthropocene era, characterized by sustainability and environmental challenges, the Metaverse emerges as a virtual alternative with the potential to reduce the ecological footprint while enhancing human experiences. However, the development of Metaverse encounter unprecedented technical, social, and ethical challenges. Bioinspired technologies, referring to those developed with inspiration from the biological world, have demonstrated successful applications across various fields and show potential in addressing challenges within the Metaverse. This paper explores the integration of bioinspired technologies with the Metaverse, focusing on its social and ethical implications. It proposes a conceptual model for a bioinspired Metaverse, elucidating how bioinspired technologies may shape the evolution of the Metaverse through four dimensions: Enhancement of User Interaction, Promotion of Digital Inclusivity, Advancement of Sustainable Development, and Guidance of Ethical Considerations. This paper makes a significant contribution by adopting an innovative context - the bioinspired Metaverse - that facilitates a deeper reexamination of the relationship among technology, nature, and human society through interdisciplinary discussion.

探索仿生技术与虚拟宇宙的融合：人类世时代的商业和社会影响

在以可持续发展和环境挑战为特征的人类世时代，虚拟宇宙作为一种虚拟替代品出现，有可能减少生态足迹，同时增强人类体验。然而，元宇宙的发展遇到了前所未有的技术、社会和伦理挑战。仿生技术是指那些受生物世界启发而开发的技术，已经在各个领域展示了成功的应用，并显示出解决元宇宙挑战的潜力。本文探讨了仿生技术与元宇宙的整合，重点关注其社会和伦理影响。它提出了一个仿生元宇宙的概念模型，阐明了仿生技术如何通过四个维度塑造元宇宙的演变：增强用户交互、促进数字包容性、推进可持续发展和道德考虑指导。本文通过采用创新背景——受生物启发的元宇宙——做出了重大贡献，通过跨学科讨论促进了对技术、自然和人类社会之间关系的更深入的重新审视。
