Will Ada County keep testing the emissions from your car?

The answer to that question will determine the future of the Ada County Air Quality Board, at a time when climate change, electric cars and the Treasure Valley airshed are top of mind for many, including the city of Boise.

Our Morning Edition Host George Prentice sat down with Boise City Councilman Patrick Bageant, an Ada County Air Quality Board member and Boise's Climate Action Manager, Steve Hubble, to talk about the future of the air we breathe.

As Senior Producer of our live daily talk show Idaho Matters, I’m able to indulge my love of storytelling and share all kinds of information (I was probably a Town Crier in a past life!). My career has allowed me to learn something new everyday and to share that knowledge with all my friends on the radio.

As host of Morning Edition, I'm the luckiest person I've ever known because I spend my days listening to smart, passionate, engaging people. It’s a public trust. I lean in to talk with actors, poets, writers and volunteers who make Idaho that much more special.
