Some of the more salient points from the abstract:
> (2) the large majority (almost 90%) of studies are opinions rather than analysis;
> (3) few studies use quantitative or qualitative data, and even fewer ones use formal modelling;
> (4) the first and second type tend to include small samples or focus on non-representative cases;
> (5) most studies offer ad hoc and subjective policy advice, lacking policy evaluation and integration with insights from the literature on environmental/climate policies;
> (6) of the few studies on public support, a majority concludes that degrowth strategies and policies are socially-politically infeasible;
