While I do not know how much carbon is created during the recycling asphalt is nearly 100% recyclable.

  My point is that asphalt is petroleum based, absorbs heat from the sun, and requires energy to heat it when building.

    We can generate heat with electricity.

      That could be viable, but would only solve half the issue assuming the electricity was 100% renewable. Then you still have the solar absorption problem.

        > Then you still have the solar absorption problem. What do you mean, lower albedo?
