The Federal Aviation Administration will reduce flights at dozens of major airports as early as Friday if no shutdown deal is reached, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy announced at a news conference Wednesday.
Ten percent of air traffic at 40 busy airports would be cut, potentially impacting thousands of flights, though the details of how many and which specific airports will be cut was not announced.
Not a lot of people realize just how polluting airplanes are. The government basically is about to affect the weather locally this winter.
This winter in the PNW is supposed to be more rainy. Its already showing signs of that. So I wonder if removing a 1/4 of the most polluting vehicles will change things. Although according to the news people are not just gonna stay home. So this could swing from train travel to massive car gridlock.
I’m gonna sit here and watch the rat race.
