For academics who are generally impotent for making any real change, doing "studies" and writing books makes them feel like they are doing something and making a contribution. You can't solve a problem if you haven't identified it of course.
Issue is as we have pointed out here, the problem was already identified 20 years ago, so they're not contributing anything new. We even know not only the problem but what needs to be done. Problem is, except for a few survivalist types who go off grid, about nobody does the necessary powering down to be doing what needs to be done. It's pointless anyhow, since at the same time billionaires are doubling down and powering UP.
So, we get studies, not change.
