“[I]t would be speciesist to accord greater weight to the interests of an individual just because it’s the last one of a certain species group. It doesn’t matter how many groups there are in the world. Groups are not conscious beings, they don’t have interests. Individuals do. [W]hat’s relevant is that all individuals that do exist now and that will exist in the future be able to live good lives. We cannot change what happened in the past. We can and should learn from it.”
