95% of US banks are either "neutral" or actively harmful to our climate through their investments of YOUR money in fossil fuels. Chase and Bank of America also remain major financiers supplying arms to Israel for the #PalestineGenocide. Learn how to #DropYourDirtyBank: xrboston.org/drop-your-di...

This morning, activists greeted Boston commuters with banners along Storrow Drive. Bank of America, Chase, Citi, and Wells Fargo directly fund the climate crisis & genocide. #DropDirtyBanks today! Full press release: xrboston.org/press/activi...

Did you spot the familiar airfield in The Handmaid’s Tale: Season 6, Episode 9? That's right, villains store their private jets at Massport's Hanscom Field. If we stop the proposed hangar expansion, we stop the Commanders of Gilead from flying off with our futures. #NoPrivateJetExpansion

When would-be developers of Hanscom Field’s proposed expansion argued “ferry flight reduction” would balance out an additional 6,000 private jet flights annually (2024 IEc Report), Chuck Collins from @inequality.org ‬at IPS came to @gbhnews.bsky.social with the facts. Learn more at spje.org.

“Climate is a multiplier of the cost of living crisis,” points out @jbozuwa.bsky.social of @cplusc.bsky.social. “We actually can build an alternative — in state rent control, green affordable housing. It’s not a climate movement, it’s a working class movement of which climate is a part.”

Last week, Brian Okum faced felony charges in Concord Court for protesting the proposed expansion of private jet infrastructure at Hanscom Field. If convicted, he would have received the first felony conviction for climate activism in MA history. Learn more: www.bostonglobe.com/2025/05/14/s...

Gov Healey ran down an emergency stairwell instead of answering our simple question: "do you choose billionaires or your constituents?" the Hanscom Airfield Expansion reverses decades of climate progress in MA so the ultra rich can fly in private jets and destroy our future

Despite the rain last Saturday, hundreds of rebels took to the streets to demand that our elected officials in Massachusetts stand up to Trump and the billionaires he gives free license to destroy our planet. For all of our collective survival, we need a government which puts people over profit!

Forecast calls for light rain tomorrow but we are ON for the United We Rage rally @ 1 pm! Meet at Boylston St & Dalton St by the Hynes Convention Center in Boston. We'll have a live brass band, singing, & chanting to protest Trump's attacks on people & planet. RSVP here: xrboston.org/action/2025-...

XR Boston disrupted a @massport.bsky.social board meeting to thank them for catering to the ultra wealthy by expanding private jet capacity at Hanscom Field! Billionaires need luxury flights, and when our planet becomes unlivable, we'll flee to Mars without you! www.tiktok.com/@xrboston/vi...

Billionaires & development investors ❤️@Massport and @MassGov! Expanding Hanscom Field to allow 70 additional private jets will help us take even MORE trips to our private islands while the world burns. At least the new hangars are net zero 😉Keep up the great work! www.instagram.com/reel/DIRXQxw...

Thank you Massport for proving your allegiance to the ultra-wealthy by allowing developers to move forward with the proposed Hanscom Field expansion! Keep ignoring the thousands of activists & petition signers begging you not to cancel out 70% of solar pv in MA! www.instagram.com/reel/DIHwyF1...

BREAKING: rebels disrupt Rep. Seth Moulton demanding Democrats “fight back or fuck off” Protestors are being kidnapped off our streets and the little climate progress the US has made is under attack We will shut Dems down until they start fighting back

Private jet infrastructure expansion is the height of denial during an era of climate collapse. @chuck77.bsky.social just published this awesome article with The Nation: www.thenation.com/article/envi... "Local activists in Massachusetts have taken on the private jet lobby—and they might just win."

The climate justice "shot heard round the world" -see my article in @thenation.com about the inspiring work of Stop Private Jet Expansion at Hanscom Field! www.thenation.com/article/envi...

this is fine

National Grid just cancelled a geothermal pilot project in Lowell, MA It would have provided an environmental justice community with clean, renewable energy for heating and cooling National Grid scrapped the project due to “cost” Last year they racked in more than $7,000,000,000 in profit

Today Massachusetts runs out of emergency assistance shelter funding There is snow on the ground, it is pouring cold rain and we are in the dead of winter. Democrats fully control the statehouse and all we’re hearing is crickets (1/3)🧵

In this time of federal collapse, our state leadership must step up. Maura Healey must be shut down, interrupted, shouted over everywhere until she announces a moratorium on new fossil fuel infrastructure

If you want a clear overview of the state of the climate crisis as we enter Trump's second term, we recommend our new article posted today! xrboston.org/news/the-sta...

If you wonder whether or not "sustainable aviation fuels" are the silver bullet for air travel's carbon emission problem, we recommend checking out last week's video conference with our friends at Institute for Policy Studies, @sierraclub.bsky.social MA, and others: inequality.org/article/a-di...

Thank you for your support! Our friend and rebel Julia was arrested for protesting the Hanscom expansion when she was 4 months pregnant. She attended court dates throughout the pregnancy and early days of motherhood. Her daughter is now over 3 months old. That's how long this process has been!

Back to the Concord District Court again this morning with the 21 courageous activists who disrupted Hanscom Field last April in protest of the proposed private jet expansion. Several of the defendants are moving forward to trial this spring! Stay tuned for dates to show up at court and support.
