I will take any non violent legal action to block airport expansion. I also believe airlines should pay fuel tax. Airport expansion is fuelling climate change.

Climate change is the largest problem facing the world today, and air travel is the fastest growing contributer to CO2 emmissions. Aviation fuel is the only fuel that is not taxed. To reduce climate change an international tax on aviation fuel must be introduced and airport expansion must be halted. Short-haul flights are particularly damaging, and these must be replaced by an improved rail system.

Air transport has become far too cheap (Air Fuel needs to be taxed) in relation to rail and needs to be curbed.

Being concerned about the huge impacts of climate change,the government should be working towards initiating a global agreement against airport expansion worlwide.

Air transport causes a huge impact on global warming for out of proportion to the benefit it might create.

Air Travel and therefore airport expansion is unsustainable and can not be justified. We must aim for reductions.
