Living in Missoula has many benefits, however one constant source of frustration is the inversion that happens every winter. Missoula is situated in a valley surrounded by mountains. Every winter, the pollution from neighboring industry, be it paper mills or lumber mills, combined with the exhaust from commuting citizens, creates an inversion of smog that settles over the valley for weeks, blocking the sun.

Maybe we can learn something from a little village in Italy, pop. 185, that installed a mirror on one of the mountains, which tracks the sun and re-directs it into their little hamlet.

The question is, would the smog be cut by this redirected sun?
