This open access book shines a light on how and why academic work
became entwined with air travel, and what can be done to change
academia's flying habit. The starting point of the book is that
flying is only one means of scholarly communication among many, and
that the state of the planet now obliges us to shift to other
means. How can the academic-as-globetrotter become a thing of the
past? The chapters in this book respond to this call in three
steps. It documents the consequences of academic flying, it
investigates the issue of why academics fly, and it begins an
effort to think through what can replace flying, and how. Finally,
it confronts scholars and scientists, students, activists, research
funders, university administrators, and others, with a call to
translate this research into action.
