2. The decision to move to net-zero carbon emissions without a transition period;
3. The impact this had on Sri Lanka's agricultural system and wider economy;
4. How a large component of the population ended up in poverty as a result of this policy; and
5. The political crisis that ensued and led to President fleeing the country.
