This is approximately what I said today:
This is Laura Gibbons, a member of the climate justice group 350 Seattle, and a
Seattle resident.
I'm happy to see that with the FlyHealthy@SEA planning (Item 9A) you are thinking of
our community's immediate health by setting up SEATAC to minimize the
transmission of the virus that causes COVID-19.
I hope that you will also think about our medium-term health by reducing noise and
emissions exposures as planes land and take off from SEATAC. These adverse
effects fall disproportionately on low-income communities and people of color, an
environmental injustice.
For our long-term health, indeed for the survival of all humans, we can't return to
previous levels of flying, much less enact the growth you are planning. There is no
way we can meet our regional or global climate goals without reducing aviation.
Thank you for hearing my concerns. I hope you will act on them.
Thank you,
Laura
