When you walk on a sandy beach, it takes more energy than walking down a sidewalk—because the weight of
your body pushes into the sand. It turns out that the same thing is true for vehicles driving on roads.
“The weight of the vehicles creates a very shallow indentation (凹陷) in the pavement—and it makes it such that
it’s continuously driving up a very shallow hill,” said Jeremy Gregory, a scientist at M.I.T.. He modeled with his
teammates how much energy could be saved and greenhouse gases avoided—by simply hardening the nation’s roads
and highways.
And they found that hardening 10 percent of the nation’s roads every year could prevent emissions equal to 440
megatons of carbon dioxide over the next 5 decades—that amount is equal to how much CO, you’d spare the planet
by keeping a billion barrels of oil in the ground or by growing 7 billion trees for a decade. It reduces 0.5% of projected
transportation emissions over that time period.
As for how to harden roads, Gregory says you could combine small amounts of certain fiber with high
technology into paving materials. Or you could pave with specially-made concrete, which is harder than ordinary
construction materials.
This system could also be a way to shave carbon emissions without some of the usual barriers. “Usually, when it
