In the article, "Sustainability", Missouri Asphalt Pavement Association (2013) discusses the 'green' effects of asphalt. Not only is asphalt considered 'green' for being non-disposable and reusable regardless of its age, but also because it allows other waste products to be involved in the process. The development of Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) is revolutionary in asphalt paving, as it uses cultivated old asphalt to be incorporated into new asphalt using heat. Lesser pristine resources are used, thus reduces spending and fuel usage. This benefits both contractors and the environment. Additionally, innovations such as Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) and porous pavements are beneficial to the environment. Halved temperature emissions and reduced carbon footprints are resultant of WMA's hybrid production. Porous pavements on the other hand allow rainwater drainage into recharge beds for soil absorption and replenishes aquifers rather than forcing water into sewers...
