No meaningful impact? That's quite a statement. Studies show that co-exposure to PM and O3 results in diminished lung capacity, especially among vulnerable people.

I'm all for that (and so is my 4-year old, who looooves purple electric buses). I also get the logistical hurdles in bringing spare capacity online. That said, there's also slack in the system. Cities around the world make transit free on days like this. Surely we can too.
