Show Notes

Officials unveil electric-hybrid refrigeration units at Hunts Point Produce Market, aiming to replace up to one thousand diesel units, reducing pollution and emissions. The initiative, funded by congestion pricing, targets sky-high asthma rates in the Bronx, with each new unit slashing pollution equivalent to removing 330 truck trips daily. Air pollution drops by 20% in the congestion zone, with more Bronx fixes planned to keep the air breathable.
