Some estimates say private jets produce 10 times the amount of carbon per passenger... independent.co.uk/travel/new…

As we saw yesterday, tourist choppers aren’t just a 311 problem because of noise, they’re a 911 problem because of public safety concerns and they need to be restricted.

NEW: Every time Taylor Swift, Kim Kardashian, or Elon Musk take a trip on their private jet, you’re subsidizing it.
Private jets make up one in six flights. But they contribute just 2% of the taxes to fund airports—while we pay 70%.
It’s time to end that billionaire tax break.

Please watch this vid. It really sums up the problem of private jets beautifully. This is NOT a victimless crime and it's compounded by yet another system by which the owner cheat their way out of paying AT LEAST as much as we do for the privilege of flying!!

How about you stop selling leaded airplane fuel at your private airport?

Hey @EastHamptonTown, you want to ban gas but yet that filthy airport still exists. You can ban gas stoves for electric but that doesn't compare to the environmental impact of the non-essential aircraft.

I think @SenSchumer and Senate Dems should introduce a Climate Disaster Response Act next week:
- Funding for relief & resiliency
- Fast track clean energy
- Crackdown on fossil fuels
- Make polluters pay for it
We need leadership to tackle this crisis.

At 63 I still had not popped my fingerprint/mug shot cherry so I did this. Because the last thing this planet needs is billionaires spewing greenhouse gases to get to their palatial beach homes. Just so wrong. foxnews.com/politics/disney-…

“There were charges of class favoritism and redlining as Patricia Currie of Noyac and John Kirrane of Sag Harbor angrily denounced the impact of the change on people living beyond East Hampton’s borders.”

@NYCEDC conflict of interest w/ the company to get new DMH heliport contract - Saker Aviation. Thanks to @NY1 @RoccoNY1 @NYDailyNews for covering this disturbing story. The helicopter industry needs more oversight and not from the EDC w/conflicts!

@FAANews has been pretty useless. We need direct community air safety teams to get these hostile helicopters and small planes out of our local neighborhoods. We need a larger campaign against noise pollution! @RightAvenues @nycisfine @DorinneTye
