Air travel has a dreadful impact on our environment, and should be used very sparingly. Far from facilitating the expansion of air travel, the Government should be taking fiscal measures to lower demand for it. I will continue to campaign tirelessly through CAECA to stop the expansion of Coventry airport.

I disagree with the expansion. When will you stop kill nature? When we are all dead???

I am strongly opposed to further expansion of airports as air travel is clearly an unsustainable form of transport. The costs are too low (fuel subsidies) the emissions are too high (35000 feet) and the prices so too cheap they cannot represent the true cost to the taxpayer, environment and ultimately our children.

Lets slow down, stay local and not travel so much or use so much stuff that requires long distance transportation. But maybe the odd banana won't matter????

It could be argued that it is both inappropriate and counterproductive to allow expansions to be implemented in this way. Indeed, it contradicts government policy to reduce CO2 emissions and blatantly ignores health and safety issues as well as EU legislation. Concrete runways are not the solution to accommodate the needs of airline companies profits.

stop airport expansion. the impact of such policy must be taken in account, the danger of such procedure will only result in an increase of GHG. this is not the right moment for airport expansion

No more airport expansion, or this will lead to more drastic climate change.
