Yeah but that definition is a deformation of what bankrupcy means for a business, and the use of the word bankrupcy is more alarmist than its "proposed definition".

"irreversible damage to nature" is vague. Is a dam causing irreversible damage to nature? It sure is. Can it solve a lack of water in the dry season, of course it can.

People are more ready to build dams and damage nature than to starve.

The whole notion of bankrupcy is unclear, and making headlines with alarmist claims that are not really felt on the ground is just going to make people cringe.
