Free BART tomorrow–save a pound!
Yes, you can save a pound tomorrow–a pound of pollution. According to a spokeswoman for the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, via the Chron, “There are 5.1 million cars registered in the Bay Area… and each one contributes a little less than a pound of pollution per day.” Because of the heat and other conditions predicted for tomorrow’s weather, tomorrow has been deemed an “orange-level” air day, so public transit officials are implementing “Spare the Air.” This means public transit is free getting into (but not out of) work tomorrow. Take public transit!
