No, because it is obvious that flying less is better for the planet. Replace “flying” with “eating meat”, “driving”, etc.
The problem is that all the research in the world won’t get people to change their behavior. The incentives are too strong (it’s fun to go on vacation, meat tastes good, I can make money by selling cars) and the disincentives are too weak (some fish I’ve never seen goes extinct, 50 years from now Miami will be fucked, some people halfway around the world will die, etc.).
