Paul Dale, longtime climate activist and UCC church member, to address the Stop Private Jet Expansion (SPJE) at Hanscom AFB initiative
On Sunday, September 21st, Paul Dale, a longtime member of Southern New England UCC’s Environmental Ministry Team and climate activist, has been invited to speak at FCCW’s Moment for Mission on behalf of the Justice Ministry. Given the expansion of private jet operations at Hanscom AFB, a coalition of state and local organizations and faith organizations have stepped up to support it. Their reasons are compelling. Currently, “…private jet emissions from Hanscom already cancel nearly 50% of the climate gains from all solar PV currently installed in MA. If the proposed development goes through, the adverse impact is expected to climb to 70%.”Following worship, Paul will be available during Hospitality Hour to answer any questions. Along with providing additional background resources, Paul will explain how we can best support this initiative.
Given the pushback by the current administration, which is doing its utmost to impede sustainable energy initiatives, this is not only a local effort but a tangible means of safeguarding our climate and God’s beloved Creation. Thank you in advance for helping support this critical initiative.
The Justice Ministry Team
