I am not surprised, I am disappointed.

I hope that we’ll at some point consider economic models that account for externalities, for the finite nature of Earth, for our humanity.

Like the donut economics model aiming for sustainability - or a similar approach.

I too am hoping that week account for negative externalities and therefore would love to see a carbon tax for example. Can you explain what the unaccounted externality is in this case?
