God has requested sacrifice. The animals that were sacrificed were his creation. Does this mean that God doesn't care if we destory the ozone layer and pollute the earth? How do we know which creations God values most?

In the beginning God trusted mankind with the care of a beautiful and perfect world. It's in the Bible, Genesis 2:15, NIV. "The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it."
God expects us to be trustworthy in our stewardship of resources. It's in the Bible, I Corinthians 4:2, RSV. "Moreover it is required of stewards that they be found trustworthy."
God warns that those who destroy the earth will be destroyed. It's in the Bible, Revelation 11:18, NIV. "The nations were angry; and Your wrath has come. The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding Your servants the prophets and Your saints and those who reverence Your name, both small and great—and for destroying those who destroy the earth."
Usually the sacrafice was eaten.

They were killed to show blood must be shed for sins. Then the perfect lamb came...Jesus and shed blood for all sins.
To honour those animals, perhaps you should accept Jesus. All those animals had to die so that we would believe. Alot of people died in the OT...to show that you dont want in G-d's judgement. You want His blessings.
He has given us a painfully easy choice. Accept Jesus and be blessed or choose to be on the side of judgement ..what have you decided?

God values all his creation. Humans of course are of greatest value. God said, "My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways." Sometimes God's ways are beyond our comprehension.

God created many societies on many different planets. If the majority destroy themselves given that they were given the ability to reason, and the privilege of free choice, so be it. God's busy helping those who help themselves!

We are to be good stewards of His creation.
Animal sacrifices were a substitute until Jesus came to be our perfect sacrifice.
