I feel like a recently read an article to that effect but I can't recall where. I should have posted something about it.
also not sure I actually agree with you, but its worth debating. coming from ny, los angeles seems like the most ecologically unsustainable city I've ever lived in. not sure that provides a great model for urban density to other cities.
