Hood River Climate | Indigenous Curator | Fareless Transit

• Last month, the city of Hood River passed a resolution recognizing the global climate crisis, but they wanted to do more than just recognize it. The resolution also moves up the city's goal for reaching net-zero municipal greenhouse gas emissions from 2050 to 2035. We hear from Hood River Mayor Kate McBride and Lottie Bromham, a senior at Hood River Valley High School who testified in favor of the resolution.

• Stephanie Littlebird Fogel created an exhibit called "This is Kalapuyan Land" for the Washington County Museum. It is a look into the Kalapuya tribe's history and contemporary culture. We talk with Fogel about what this exhibit means to Native Americans in Washington County and throughout Oregon.

• Earlier this month the Kansas City Council voted to eliminate bus fares. That makes Kansas City the largest city in the country to eliminate transit costs for riders.
