May be? Stand in a shady park and then walk next door to the asphalt parking lot. Is there anything inherently wrong with strong thermal updrafts? Perhaps not but, prove it. Or, prove in a bio regional sense this sort of top down, market driven planning isn't offloading entropy on others. How can we go on pretending that we are not all intimately connected and all related in one way or another? You would not want your children to suffer but it is okay for others?

The proofs are not evenly distributed*, you simply have to look for them (or ask, please continue to do so :)

>on a hot, dry day, a person could feel more than 7 degrees warmer on a “cool pavement”, as the reflective roads are called, as opposed to a normal blacktop.

As for your "regional sense", yes, the field of psychology ought to be called "mesoeconomics" (and why not mess-o-economics?)

*Shall we ahem, say, highly entropic?

In short, we need eink for roads :)

Interesting comment thanks for the response.
