New York has used at least different types of road salt over the years. All versions kill trees and pollute ground water. Good for new car sales though. Cars and trucks rarely last more then 10 years before they start rotting out.
Calcium Chloride on roads freezes at -20F Sodium Chloride on roads freezes at + 15F Magnesium Choride on roads freezes at +5 F.
New York tried mixing ground up glass with salt and sand last year.
This year they are mixing sand, salt, and sugar beet juice.

My vote is to go back to snow-packed roads and sand. When roads get back, drive slower.
