Where have all the academics gone?

Posted in: Comment, New Publications, News and Updates

Here's a cheery video from Cambridge looking at the impact of one of their green initiatives.  But where are the academics?

If you follow the on-screen credits, and freeze the last screen, you see who's involved – and not so involved.  As usual, there's a lot of estates folk, together with secretaries, administrators, and research associates; even the odd PhD student and Post-doc, but ... no actual academics.

The case of the vanishing academic is something I've commented on a couple of times recently and is particularly odd given that we're told that more and more academics are engaging with sustainability.

There must be some at Cambridge, somewhere ... .
