Global Warming and Energy

Closing a highway in Los Angeles cuts CO2 emissions. Duh.
"In study findings announced Sept. 28, UCLA researchers report that they measured air pollutants during last year’s Carmageddon (July 15) and found that when 10 miles of the 405 closed, air quality near the shuttered portion improved within minutes, reaching levels 83 percent better than on comparable weekends."
Maybe zoning laws and the zero marginal cost matter.
