Ironic, no? Whether it's the best or the worst of life, it always rolls downhill, and so have 96 million plastic balls rolled into the Los Angeles Reservoir, creating what one supporter of the plan told the New York Times is "the world's largest ball pit." The last 20,000 of the balls were rolled into the reservoir Aug. 10, completing the $34.5 million project.https://climatechangedispatch.com/wp-content/uploads/images_pics8_balls.jpg
