"Carbon chauvinism" is a term that refers to a bias or preference for carbon-based life forms, particularly in the context of discussions about the origins and nature of life in the universe. It highlights the tendency to assume that life must be carbon-based, as it is on Earth, and to overlook the possibility of alternative biochemistries, such as silicon-based life or other forms that might exist under different environmental conditions.
