New York tackles algal blooms, considers aid-in-dying law, warns against heat danger in cars.

New York faces multiple issues: a Harmful Algal Bloom advisory for Conesus Lake, the Medical Aid in Dying Act awaiting Governor Kathy Hochul's signature, and warnings about the dangers of leaving children and pets in hot cars. Additionally, a free pediatric health screening event aims to help rural Wayne County families. Governor Hochul supports a new zero-emission nuclear plant, and a study shows laser weeders can effectively replace herbicides in crop management.
