Far too many short haul flights, should go by train, tax aviation fuel Europewide.

I can't believe that there are plans to expand airports when the enviromental consequences are so severe making the problem so much worse. Surely we need to be curbing air traffic by taxing fuel in one of the most polluting industrys.

Airport expansion encourages airtravel - the most polluting form of transport there is, and causes serious distress to those living and working near airports.

Deeply concerned about levels of pollution(both environmental and noise)affected area where live has to be a balance between environment and corporate gain

I am opposed to airport expansion. I can see from my window aeroplanes on approach to Edinburgh Airport and I am staggered at the number and frequency. It is terrifying to think of the emissions and the effect they are having on the environment.

I am against this new outrage of airport expansion, as it is both damaging and dangerous to the environment. I fail to understand how our government can propose such a scheme which will pollute our country, when they are asking us all to help the environment.

How can Tony Blair claim that he is committed to reducing climate change when he is backing a massive predict-and-provide expansion of airports across the UK? He should be taxing airplane fuel at the same rate as petrol and investing in a decent rail network instead.
