PASADENA, CA – NOVEMBER 07: Mario Lopez, EXTRA host, a Boys & Girls Club alumnus and STOMP Out Bullying Global Ambassador, helps Planet Fitness bring its judgement free philosophy into a deserving community, by unveiling a brand new “Mini Judgement Free Zone” gym within the Boys & Girls Club of Pasadena as part of the brand’s Judgement Free Generation initiative aimed at spreading kindness and ending bullying on November 7, 2016 in Pasadena, California. Since the introduction of The Judgement Free Generation, anti-bullying tools and resources created by STOMP Out Bullying have been made available to the more than 4,000 Boys & Girls Clubs across the country, and trainings have been held for Boys & Girls Clubs’ staff to create positive, judgement free environments that will help kids thrive.

They then top off the tank with a little extra, just to be safe.

But all that extra weight causes the plane to burn more, costing the companies and adding to carbon emissions.

Across the pond, the British-based Fuel Matrix is in talks with airlines to weigh passengers before boarding, in an effort to have more exact calculations.

The idea would be to ask passengers to step on a pressure pad scale either at check-in or during security screenings, with the data confidentially transmitted back to the airline.

Does this seem like an invasion of privacy? Do the savings outweigh the concerns?
