from What's What · host WFUV Newsroom

Mayor Mamdani released previously undisclosed documents that revealed the public was misled about the air quality in the months after the attacks of September 11th, 2001. WFUV’s Anne Jackson has more. New Yorkers will now be required to put their trash in city-sanctioned bins if they live in a residential building with more than 9 units. WFUV’s Nora Malone explains the new law and purpose behind it. And in other “trashy” news, WFUV’s Anne Jackson took a visit to Washington Heights to learn more about TrashTalkNYC, a clean-up initiative that’s creating community.
