So does reopening the #GreatWalkway to ๐Ÿš˜ have a climate impact? We can calculate that using the @NCST_Research induced travel calculator travelcalculator.ncst.ucdavis.edu. ๐Ÿงต
Adding 2 mi x 4 lanes = 8 lane-mi of class 3 roadway in SF (if fully reopened) would mean 21 million more vehicle miles traveled each year.

Estimating 0.4 kg CO2/mi (lifecycle) from @TheICCT theicct.org/news/global-LCโ€ฆ yields 8000 tons CO2. /2
That would counter the @SFEnvironment climate plan of reducing SF's transportation emissions from 2.5 to 1.2 million tons, primarily by getting people out of cars. sfenvironment.org/sites/default/โ€ฆ

In fact we need MANY MORE #StreetsForPeople like #GreatWalkway to get this done. /3
