Tidying up ETF portfolios - What to do with ESG?

I am in the middle of cleaning up my ETF portfolio. My core is currently the $XZW0 (+0,53%) and I'm wondering whether it's wise to stick with ESG in the current market situation and whether I shouldn't switch to a "normal" World ETF (MSCI, because I'm also saving for the emerging markets at the same time).

I would be interested to hear your opinions.

I'm saving a world etf and an esg etf for my children so that when the time comes to give them the money, I can say it's clean money, it couldn't help that we now only have a life expectancy of 65 years due to the heatwaves...
I can see the difference in returns live, it's pretty much exactly 10%.
So in purely economic terms, I think it's nonsense to invest in ESG. It's only good for soothing your conscience. And yes, I also know the arguments against ESG in terms of sustainability etc.

@bardar $XZW0 has done well in recent years, but I am increasingly bothered by the tech-heavy approach and greenwashing

I stay as far away from ESG hypocrisy as possible. So I wouldn't touch this ETF with pliers.

I'm thinking the same way. I'm planning to switch to SWRD. Not only for ESG criteria but Microsoft and Nvidia are too big for me to use this ETF as core ETF.
