Aaaand not a mention of global warming. Just abstract "environmental regulation". And it seems to only care about 1970s era regulation.
An article bemoaning the flawed state of modern economics also reflects the fundamental flaw of the culture of economics-the-study: not a flying fuck is given about existential environmental dangers and the very very real role economics-the-institution played in downplaying, avoiding, exacerbating, and denying their existence.
This despite an ever growing flood of REAL science that backs it up. The non-science of economics was in denial the whole time.
I was hoping this article reflected progress. Instead, it is the same old crap.
