PoS Commissioner's meeting 4-28-2020, Bernedine Lund, Federal Way resident, member of
QSPS and 350 Seattle Aviation group 
A question for you during this down-turn in most aviation activities: W hat do you want the
aviation industry to look like in the future? Aviation will most likely always be part of our
future. However, you have to know that its unrestricted growth cannot continue. Now is a good
time to think about how to head toward alternatives to aviation that are less harmful to people, to
the climate, and to the world. 
One web site 'www.AviationJustice.com/alternatives/' lists several alternatives to flights. These
include: 
Teleconferencing, examples include Skype and Zoom (Zoom not Boom has been
suggested as a catchy phrase to support Zoom; where Boom is the company working to
restart supersonic flights) 
Express Buses 
High Speed Rail, including Hyperlink, as is being developed in the mid-west, India, and
China 
Amtrak  if as much money had been spent on Amtrak as on airports, runways, etc. for
the aviation industry, Amtrak would be much more available and used. 
Slow travel 
Sea-Tac facilities can be made attractive to all these alternatives. Rather than spending more
money for aviation, consider planning for a telecommunication center, travel information center,
train station, etc. The activity would also attract people to the various business already in the
largest mall in the state  the one at Sea-Tac.
