Sri Lanka has received an ESG score of 98 out of 100. ESG measures environmental goodness by how little humans impact Earth. But human beings survive and flourish by impacting Earth. ESG and the broader anti-impact movement are anti-human. So Sri Lanka is close to their ideal.

A compelling theory. But is it true? Today's FT Moral Money:

Is Tucker Carlson right to blame ESG for Sri Lanka’s crisis?

Plus, what’s behind Bill Gates’ new $20bn pledge

Note: I didn’t say that ESG caused SL’s problems, but that there is an anti-impact philosophy/framework that drives both ESG and what SL did. Happy to send you Fossil Future if you’re interested in my analysis of anti-impact philosophy and its many tentacles (not just ESG).

Fantastic. 98 out of 100. And total anarchy. Pretty much says it all.
