SaveOurSkies PDX will advocate for peaceful skies and reduce residential neighborhood impacts caused by low altitude military jet maneuvers in the vicinity of Portland International Airport. Read our expanded mission statement here.

 

Advocating for peaceful skies.

…Because the World Health Organization says OCDAs and other high intensity airplane noises as a serious physical and mental health hazard. Learn more here.

Equity & social justice.

…Because even marginalized, underserved, and disenfranchised Portlanders deserve a quality of life without noise pollution. Learn more here.

Reducing pollution.

…Because the National Environmental Policy Act, the Federal Aviation Administration, the World Health Organization, the City of Portland, and countless neighborhood associations agree that it’s the right thing to do. Learn more here.

Stopping the OCDA at PDX.

…Because the Oregon Air National Guard is sacrificing our peace and quality of life in the name of defending those very same things. It doesn’t make sense. Learn more here.
