"The latest G7 summit was a waste of resources. If it had to be held at all, it
should have been conducted online, saving time, logistical costs, and airplane
emissions. But, more fundamentally, G7 summits are an anachronism. Political
leaders need to stop devoting their energy to an exercise that is
unrepresentative of today’s global economy and results in a near-complete
disconnect between stated aims and the means adopted to achieve them.

There was absolutely nothing at the G7 summit that could not have been
accomplished much more cheaply, easily, and routinely by Zoom."
