Overall ethical score
+22.22
Reasoned summary
A mixed record: meaningful ecological mobilisation offset by weak scientific discipline and accountability.
This assessment presents six separate ethical dimensions rather than one overall moral score. Each result must be read with its evidence, plausible range, confidence, disputes, exclusions, severe-harm findings and sources.
Most significant negative evidence
Pseudoscientific claims, compliance disputes and limited independent evidence reduce the result.
