This is the Vjosa National Park in Albania ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ‡ฑ

It's the only wild river national park in Europe.

And Munich Airport is building an airport there.

๐Ÿงต Image
Every new airport is an act of climate vandalism - and this one is particularly bad.

It breaks Albanian national law and international biodiversity protection conventions that Albania has ratified. Image
It is a disgrace that the Albanian Government is allowing this.

But they're not the only guilty party.

Munich Airport are involved in building it - exporting their destruction to maximise their profit.

NEW REPORT โœˆ๏ธ๐Ÿ™๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

Did you know?

โ–ถ๏ธWHO/EU aircraft noise levels are exceeded around most airports?
โ–ถ๏ธAviationโ€™s dangerous ultrafine particles arenโ€™t regulated?

โ–ถ๏ธWhat to do about #aviationโ€™s serious #health effects?

๐Ÿ‘‰ Check out:

๐Ÿงต1/8 stay-grounded.org/aviation-is-a-โ€ฆ
A person covering their ears to protect them from the noise of the airplane overhead. The text says 'aviation is a health issue!' in reference to the new Stay Grounded factsheet.
#Aircraft #noise can lead to serious health problems, from heart disease to mental health issues, sleep disturbance and hearing damage.

E.g. estimates say night-time aircraft noise near Frankfurt airport leads to 23,400 hospitalisations and 3,400 deaths a year.

2/8 A graph showing the comparison of the noise levels produced by airplanes taking off with other forms of sound such as car engines and jackhammers.
Air quality limits exist for particulate matter - but not for ultrafine particles (#UFP)!

As they are tiny, UFP penetrate deep into the lungs and bloodstream. This affects millions of people, not only those living around an #airport but also several kilometres downwind.

3/8 An image showing the community exposure to aircraft related ultrafine particles.

There's a big climate scandal that nobody is talking about.

National governments have quietly shelved their pledge to keep aviation emissions in line with the 1.5ยฐC goal. ๐Ÿงต
First, some context.

The International Aviation Climate Ambition Coalition (IACAC) was launched at COP26 & includes most of the biggest aviation polluters:

From the start, the coalition was full of scams.

They signed a declaration which relied on carbon offsetting, techno-optimist alternative fuels and aircraft designs that don't exist yet.

The aviation industry needs to face reality and find a #SafeLanding for the people working within it.ย 

Various factors make change inevitable, but we have a choice: design or disaster. Let's choose design!

A thread about our #SafeLanding narrative and when and how to use itย โฌ‡๏ธ
Transformation can bring us a clean environment, a fair economy and livable future - and better, more secure jobs

To ensure this we need a #JustTransition that is targeted, led by working people, democratic, and part of a society-wide push to put us on track for a fair economy.
Messages to communicate the narrative:

โ†’ Change will happen by disaster or by design, letโ€™s choose design
โ†’ Delaying change is reckless
โ†’ Workers who built the aviation industry deserve a protected future
โ†’ The first stage of transition is putting the brakes on expansion

โ€ผ๏ธA class action lawsuit was filed last week in a Washington State court over health effects and soil contamination from air pollution from aircraft landing and taking off at SeaTac Airport.
The 46 page (double spaced) Complaint will be of interest to many in the US.

The potential plaintiff class is 300,000 home owners and renters within a 5-mile radius of the airport. The lead attorney is Steve Berman of Seattle, who some years ago won the first (and big) class action suit against the major tobacco companies.
2/6
Defendants: Port of Seattle (which operated the airport), Delta Airlines and Alaska Airlines (5th largest in US). The 2 airlines made 24% and 56% of the 287,114 flights into SeaTac in 2020. Albeit knowing about the health effects, the defendants grew facilities and flights.

Today, people in several countries are protesting at private jet facilities. Why are they doing this?

5โƒฃ reasons why we need to #BanPrivateJets. ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿ”ฝ
1โƒฃ Private jets are the most polluting option. They emit huge amounts of climate-damaging emissions compared to already highly polluting commercial flights - and especially to low-emissions alternatives like trains.
#BanPrivateJets #TaxFrequentFlyers #MakePollutersPay Why taking private jets is ...
2โƒฃ One flight on a private jet causes much more pollution than most people in the world produce in a whole year for meeting all their needs like housing, daily mobility and food.
