Show Notes
Subway riders in major cities are feeling the heat as surface temperatures rise, with a new study linking each one-degree Fahrenheit increase to a surge in heat complaints. Researchers analyzed over eighty-five thousand social media posts and reviews from Boston, New York, and London systems, finding a ten percent increase in Boston, twelve percent in New York, and twenty-seven percent in London. The findings underscore the need for cities to implement practical solutions, such as fans, timed cooling, or water stations, to help subway operators adapt and keep millions of riders safer underground.
