Los Angeles Dishing Out $40,000-a-Mile Street Coating to Fight Climate Change
by Penny Starr17 Apr 2018
Los Angeles officials are going forward with a $40,000-a-mile program to coat public streets to fight climate change, despite the city’s many financial challenges — including a $73 million budget shortfall for dealing with the ever-expanding homeless population.
The program uses a light-colored sealant to cover the streets, which decreases the pavement temperature of so-called “heat-islands,†according to media reports.
