More information about jet pollution and the impact on children from the Santa Monica Airport Future group (their letter is featured below)…

FPK is an environmental health advocacy group that has been studying the long term health impacts of aircraft operations, including operations at SMO. They are finding concrete evidence of toxins from the aircraft operations showing up in the air, the soil, and the bodies of people in the community. Testing has been done on hair, urine, DNA, soil, and air. The dangerous toxic metals and other substances are being found that have a unique “signature” traceable to the aircraft operations.  FPK reached out to Atlantic Aviation earlier this week to discuss this important issue negatively impacting the long term health and environment of the local community.
