Bedford Community Forum: Climate Impact of Private Jet Expansion at Hanscom or Anywhere
Thursday, September 28, 2023
DISCUSSION PANELISTS:

McKibben (via Zoom) Author, Educator, Environmentalist
Massport is planning a massive hangar build-out for private jets at Hanscom Field (NOT at Hanscom Air Force Base), representing the largest single development in Hanscom’s history. If carried out, these plans will dramatically increase greenhouse gas emissions and undermine municipal, state, and national climate goals at a time when climate scientists are urging us to accelerate these goals and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The speakers will present information on the proposed expansion and its impact on our climate and our community. After hearing from the speakers, there may be opportunity for questions.
