Early voting for the city's primary elections begins tomorrow and WNYC’s Brigid Bergin offers essential tips for prospective voters. And the MTA's public comment portal is now open for input on proposed transit fare hikes which would raise subway and bus fares to $2.90. And, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres emphasizes the urgent need to phase out fossil fuels worldwide. This call to action resonates strongly in the New York City region after recent smoky conditions prompted many to stay indoors. Although the smoke was due to wildfires, not fossil fuels, such incidents are projected to increase as the climate crisis escalates. As for addressing such a global issue on a local scale, WNYC’s Michael Hill discusses possible strategies with Liz Moran, a policy advocate with Earth Justice.
