IMPACT ON ALL THE CAPITALS
Optimization for profit has been very effective and financial wealth (a component of economic capital) has grown robustly for the past 40 years. The impact on society has been much less positive with wages flatlining since around 1980. The impact on the environment (natural capital) has been catastrophically negative, and now posing an existential risk to the future of humanity.

TrueValueMetrics is multi-perspective and multi-dimensional ... and as simple as possible using standard profile benchmarks to assess actual performance of everything. Supply chains circle the world creating profits and pollution along the way. There is rigorous accounting for profit and almost none about pollution. This is dangerous and must be changed.
