Some of the things like increasing instability from climate change, mass unionization from poor labor practices, toxic ground & water due to pollution, social unrest from systemic racism will all do more to undermine investment returns and ultimately will likely cost a lot more than the ~1.5 percent return per year difference between esg and standard. You have to look beyond quarterly returns and look at the overall health of the system that that these investments reside. Stability is good for business and 50 years of laissez faire policy has left the state of society in a much more volatile position.
