We applaud the actions which you and your Administration are taking to reduce use of fossil fuels in all sectors, including transportation. We must all make sacrifices to help get our planet out of the mess we are in or at least, to not to make it worse. Increasing opportunities for luxury travel which consumes large quantities fuel and produces large amounts of GHG emissions cannot be justified. It should be rejected as s threat to the well-being of all citizens. We support you in standing strong among those who would continue to fiddle as Rome burns. Please stop private jet expansion at any and all airports over which you have authority. Thank you.

I work on Hanscom and have seen firsthand how many private jets have been taking off and landing. It is such a grotesque display of wealth and disregard for climate impacts.

The super-wealthy should not stand dominant and in control of our climate future. Instead, they should be accountable for the climate disaster they are perpetrating for the benefit of their own lifestyle.

Our challenge as a species is to cut emissions in half in the next 6 years - because if we don't exercise our choice to do so now, the climate will heat so much that we will be left with fewer choices, as the permafrost melts and releases methane, and as dry forests burn and release massive amounts of CO2. The wealthy who fly private jets don't have the right to overheat the planet for the millions who can't afford air conditioning, whose lives are at risk from climate change. Please continue your history of acting boldly for the common good, in stopping the expansion of Massport.

Let’s push back on the Uber-wealthy who use private jets with no concern for climate consequences.

The airport sits in heavily settled residential neighborhoods. Too many jet’s flying over not only brings up the noise but also increases hazard level to the ground lives.

The extra noise pollution is also a major problem.

My first concern is the flagrant, thoughtless production of emissions... 1 or 2 people in a private plane... it's criminal, really, in these times. I live on the border of Lexington and Waltham.... the jet traffic has increased significantly at all hours - quite intense. Can't imagine 3 times more? That means it will never stop - also feels like a safety thing? Who is flying these planes anyway?

West side of Woburn is on approach into airport. It has gotten so constant with the jet approach noise even I say TOO MUCH. I spent childhood hanging out at airports watching touch and go...so I love planes. But it's gotten to be too much with these jets! Please help stop this expansion!!

No accommodation for private jets that benefit only wealthy corporatists.
