BEST WAY TO MAYBE MAKE THE SUBWAYS GREEN
Green Metrocard
If you've flown through San Francisco Airport recently, you may have
noticed stands near your gate selling carbon offsets for travelers wary
of their flight's environmental footprint. Well, the MTA is
contemplating a somewhat similar plan to help finance the greening of
New York's public transportation systems. According to a proposed plan,
every time you refill your Metrocard, buy a ticket, pay a toll or
what-have-you, the vending machine will ask whether you'd like to
donate money that will be used exclusively to help fund the MTA's
environmental projects. No word yet on whether said donations will be
tax-deductible.
