  1. The summer travel season is here, but global oil production hasn’t returned to pre-pandemic levels, so supply is limited and prices are being driven up.
  2. A conservation group is planting more than 30,000 milkweed plants throughout California to help monarch butterflies.
  3. There’s only one week left to submit a video to enter the 2021 Tiny Desk Contest for a chance to play your own concert and be featured on All Things Considered. For more information, visit npr.org/tinydeskcontest
