Brilliant framework!... Your demand for a shift from prediction to causality mirrors exactly what I've been advocating in ESG analysis—moving beyond correlation theater to understand *why* sustainability metrics create value. Nice point about "mechanisms endure like natural laws"... it perfectly captures why I focus on embedding environmental factors into *core* business models rather than chasing ESG "scores." The scientific mindset you describe—asking "why" instead of just "what"—is precisely what separates strategic ESG work from compliance theater. This is essential reading for serious analysts.... Thank you for the effort you put into the article!
Thank you Otto! Yes I really think that this field needs a lot more science, durability, and... sustainability (pun intended). We should be looking for mechanisms that stand the test of time instead of chasing short-term trends :) Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot coming from an industry veteran like you!
Just saw this, Ari...
