Los Angeles painting city streets white in bid to combat climate change

[Dale00]

The extra brightness will no doubt blind drivers leading to signiifcant increases in accidents and injuries. ...But as long as it saves the planet, that is ok!

Well, after careful consideration I have determined that painting the streets white might not be such a bad idea. One can see the poop and step aside so as not to get it all over their shoes. Los Angeles is poop city.

At $40k a mile, how does LA expect to pay for this???

Lottery funds intended for teacher's pay raises and after school programs for the kids...

From the asphalt manufacturer's website - GuardTop.
So grab the salt shaker and take a few grains with the article.

Thank God the company stepped in to alleviate our fears !

When they get flack for painting the streets white it's their own dumb asphalt!

Largest homeless population in the nation and the idiots are painting roads!! The level of stupid in that state is staggering!!

Hell a better idea would have been to require everyone to roof their house with white roofing material! Would last longer and would not have cost a grossly over taxed city any money!!

What's the over/under on how many day's it'll take before folks out there go to town with the graffiti? I swear some of the people out there are dense.

Follow the money, who has a stake in the company providing the paint, bet you there is a connection...

Wouldn't doubt it one bit.

Another prediction - This is going to confuse some birds and we'll see some fall from the sky, or change their flight patterns. Then, PETA will get into a big lawsuit with the state, and after years and years of back and forth, nothing will happen.
