Latin American Newspaper Coverage of Climate Change or Global Warming, 2005-2025 - June 2025
The Media and Climate Change Observatory Data monitors 131 sources (across newspapers, radio and TV) in 59 countries in seven different regions around the world. Data is assembled by accessing archives through the Lexis Nexis, Proquest and Factiva databases via the University of Colorado libraries.

Effects of the Washington Metro's Silver Line expansion into Fairfax County, Virginia
Public transit is often proposed as a solution to traffic congestion, but existing evidence is divided
on the efficacy of public transit investment in congestion mitigation. A rare transit expansion into
an already-developed area, Washington, D.C. further extended its heavy rail access into suburban
Fairfax County, Virginia when Metro’s Silver Line opened in 2014 and 2022. Using a difference-
in-differences regression, I estimate the effects of the Silver Line expansion on traffic on a highway
parallel to the line. I find the Silver Line expansion is associated with traffic mitigation of 36,150
vehicles per day between 2015-2023 and 28,980 vehicles per day before the COVID-19 pandemic.
This reduction is equivalent in magnitude to approximately one-third of all pre-treatment traffic.
I also find traffic mitigation attributable to the Silver Line’s pandemic expansion (15,540 vehicles
per day), suggesting public transit is still effective at reducing traffic following pandemic isolation
policies. In addition to the significant congestion mitigation potential from public transit found in
this study, there are also collateral beneficial effects on the environment, equity, and energy usage
from public transit. I find that investment in transit infrastructure can reduce traffic locally and
could help the U.S. meet sustainability goals in the coming decades.</p
