I don’t give a flying fuck about CO2. I care that you are murdering an animal and ending its life for no reason. Animals have rights including the right to live without your torturing them and mudering them. Everything else is out of scope for veganism. It is an ethical position advocating for the rights of animals, not a utilitarian calculation.
Please don’t call animals it, they are someone not something, changing the language around the oppression has a widespread knock on effect to changing people’s negative opinions towards non human animals
I’ll try but please also be considerate of other users and the fact English isn’t everyone’s native language. English isn’t my first or only language. I will try my best but I will make this mistake often because this is difficult and I am not contributing to animal suffering because my native tongue doesn’t make this distinction at all.
My native language that I only spoke until I was about 8 years old doesn’t make any distinction between gender or distinguish between living and non living objects. Everyone and everything is it and its lol.
You can feel free to police language on Wikipedia or bring awareness to this, and I said I would keep this in mind and try but I don’t really want anyone policing users who may not speak English natively or have learning disabilities.
You can learn it if you keep practising learning the words and sentence structures like through apps like Duolingo or handbook guides like lonely planet or by speaking with others.
I’m planning to learn b2 french that I will use to help with my Spanish (one wall I ran into is that I didn’t know enough words to describe certain things) when I get back to it lol.

Thank you, I appreciate that and I agree with you
You can use the pronouns he/him, she/her and they/them for the animals.

That’s fair enough, That’s a cool way of speaking. As I always love hearing about how languages are unique.
On another point Spanish and french have gendered words that are to keep track of lol.
It is funny because I speak bad spanish and I really struggle with it, then of course there are exceptions like el mapa and la mano
