Demand Clean Fuel for ALL Aircraft!

Did you know:

"About half of the airborne lead in the United States comes from avgas, the aviation fuel used by small piston-engine planes. Friends of the Earth has formally petitioned the EPA to take action in 2007, as there is no safe threshold for lead exposure, which is particularly harmful for children. However, the EPA sat on its hands for the next four years, until Friends of the Earth threatened to sue. Simultaneously, the Center for Environmental Health sued BP, Chevron, and other companies selling avgas for polluting air and drinking water around California airports."

A grand total of 571 tons of lead are dumped each year, into the air over our heads- from aircraft alone, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

According to a scientific paper titled, "Lead and Halogen Contamination from Aviation Fuel Additives at Brackett Airfield," (2) X-Ray Fluorescence instrumentation was used to analyze lead, chlorine and bromine content in avgas liquids. The tests showed avgas contains the following:

Lead: 48 ppm
Bromine: 42.6 ppm
Chlorine: 605.2 ppm

Lead is a highly toxic heavy metals that causes bone diseases, brain damage and cancer. Chlorine is a highly-reactive chemical with powerful oxidative properties. The fact that both are being sprayed daily into the air above America is inexcusable.


964 tons of lead are anually released into the air (from all sources)
How much lead is being "chemtrailed" across America due to aviation fuel? According to General Aviation News (3), about 681,000 gallons of avgas were burned each day in 2013.

Avgas weighs approximately 6 lbs per gallon, meaning over 4 million pounds of avgas is burned each day, or over 1.8 million kg of avgas.

Demand cleaner air for our families, and let corporate powers know.. that we deserve to breathe air that does not contain bioaccumulative heavy metals!

Peace, love and respect for our planet!

Demand the clean air for our families, and that we are entitled to breathe air that do not contain bioaccumulative heavy metals!
