The S is for social, not sustainable. Other, more climate focused MSCI options: MSCI World low carbon leaders, MSCI World ex-fossil.
Disadvantage of "low carbon leaders": this index only adjusts weights, it doesn't actually exclude Exonn-Mobil for example. It just reduces exposure.
Disadvantage of "ex fossil": only excludes companies with fossil fuel reserves, does nothing towards airlines for example.
