| 202 | Steph | I object most strongly to all airport expansion in the UK. It destroys all our Green and Pleasant Land. It is the greatest contributor to climate changing emissions It will destroy most of our villages and some of our towns It will be a huge, ugly blot on our landscape It is an irresponsible mode of transport as it is taxfree and contributes nothing to the environment It will destroy Churches, hedges, fields, and many other heritage buildings It is based on profit for the sake of it, Destroy the standard and quality of life for all who live in the flight paths There is are more to object to than support in the aviation plans |

| 201 | Caroline Thomas | I wish to stand up and be counted among the many environmentalists whom I admire and respect in opposing airport expansion as a blinkered, selfish way of making big money for the few and so-called freedom of travel for many who apparently do not care about the destructive effects on our precious planet. |

| 200 | Kyla Davis | We need to cut down on CO2 levels NOW! before it's too late. |

| 199 | Linda | I am totally opposed to further airport expansion.The area around Heathrow Airport has already been declared an Air Quality Management Area,due to air pollution.Mr. Blair, how much nitrogen dioxide are you prepared for Heathrow residents and workers to breathe? How much nitrogen dioxide are YOU, Mr. Blair, prepared to breathe? |

| 198 | Sarah Shoraka | I am opposed to airport expansion because of the terrible effects of climate change. 150,000 people are already dying because of climate change - how many more? These people are someone's mum, granparent or child. We can save thousands of people's lives just by limiting our own consumption and encouraging governments to add in the true cost of air travel. |

| 197 | Stephen Birmingham | "If the plight of the human race at the current moment is a desperate one, it is because during the last half-century, Western man entered into a vast legacy of power without taking any prudent precautions against his own misuse of it. ... Right up to this moment we have behaved like sleepwalkers without any control over our own behavior or any knowledge of where we actually are. Or any sense of what unplumbed chasms we are at this moment teetering above. Unable to shake off our old, beguiling dreams or conquering nature and unable to face the incredible nightmare of reality." -- Lewis Mumford |

| 196 | yolande hanchen | we need to start living in harmony with our environment |
|

| 195 | Linda Gamlin | I am prepared to defend what I hold to be precious and irreplacable. This is a small island and airport expansion is madness...if we spoil more and more of our own countryside, and make it so noisy that there are no quiet green places to relax ...then what ? Well, you have to get on a plane to escape from it all ... This is not the future we want for our country. |

| 194 | Kamey Jade | I am very opposed to airport expansion's. I have lived near Ringway for most of my life and the pollution/noise and traffic involved in the airport already is hideous. We need to stop been so greedy and try and do decent things for the planet instead of concreting and polluting all over it for completely unnecessary reasons. |
