Proposed Charbroil Rule, Congestion Pricing Plan, and Subway Attack Update

E62 • Jan 13, 2025 • 10 mins

In this episode, we start with an introduction and a weekly weather overview for New York City. We then discuss the proposed Charbroil Rule and the public's reactions to this environmental initiative. The episode moves on to cover the congestion pricing plan, exploring its implementation, the legal challenges it faces, and its future prospects. We also provide an update on the recent subway attack that occurred on New Year's Eve.

Key Points

  • NYC restaurants are challenging a proposed rule requiring significant emission reductions from charbroilers, citing high costs and potential business impacts.
  • New York City has implemented congestion pricing to reduce traffic and pollution, but it faces legal opposition and criticism from some political figures.
  • A recent violent incident in the subway system highlights ongoing safety concerns, with a man surviving a push onto the tracks and the attacker now facing attempted murder charges.
