State House Rally to Stop Private Jet Expansion (Tuesday, Oct 14th)

On October 14 at 10:30 am, meet at the State House steps to listen to featured speakers, which include Senator Mike Barrett, Chuck Collins of Institute for Policy Studies, and Claire Karl Muller of Mass Power Forward and UU Mass Action. At 12pm, meet at the Governor’s Office to present a newly released report on Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAFs) and a Sign-on Letter opposing pro-SAFs as Massachusetts policy.

The Rally will:

1) focus on the insanity and injustice of expanding private jet travel for the ultra-rich when Massachusetts’ hard-won clean energy initiatives for the public are being derailed & dismantled

2) expose so-called Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAFs) used by the aviation industry as a disastrous greenwashing ploy

3) bring attention to the Hanscom developers’ next report, the SDEIR (Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Report), expected to be filed in coming weeks.

What does private jet expansion mean for Wild & Scenic Rivers? More opportunities for private jet travel will bring increased noise and worsening air quality. This will negatively affect both the wildlife that call the rivers home and the people who enjoy recreational activities, like birding or paddling.
