The Tragedy Of Sri Lanka: A Cautionary Tale On ‘Going Green’ – ‘Stems from a fertilizer reduction policy’

"The enviros got what they wanted. Sri Lanka has a near-perfect ESG score (98) which is higher than Sweden (96) or the United States (51). It also can’t feed its people and it has run out of nearly everything."

This story is almost too bizarre to believe.

Guess what country has one of the highest ESG (environment/social justice governance) scores in the world?

Yes, Sri Lanka.

Oh, wait. Things aren’t going so well there.

You’ve probably heard that Sri Lanka is in a state of total economic collapse and anarchy. The schools and businesses are shut down. The nation has run out of fuel. Last weekend, violent demonstrators stormed the official residence of the President and then set fire to the residence of the Prime Minister. Both officials have announced they will resign.

There are many factors behind Sri Lanka’s demise, but green policies are one of them.
