"There's one more reason why we need housing by the jobs. Global warming. " Truthfully, on that scale, it doesn't matter. Seriously. On that scale, we will run out of space everywhere, no matter what we do (unless you limit the population or expand to other planets). It's not even clear that we could do anything to change the timeline there, either. Really, no matter what we do in the bay area - turn it all into highrises, whatever, is going to matter a few centuries from now.
