The greatest threat facing our society is that of climate change, and the fastest growing contributor to climate change is transport, particularly air transport. For this reason alone, aiport expansion would be madness.

The government should put money into alternative methods of transport i.e. public transport, walking and cycling.

I will never travel by aeroplane again. I will not buy imported fruit or vegetables unless i know they have come by boat. I will not buy cut flowers, most of which have been imported by air. If everyone did these three things, we would not need any new airports and could close some down.

Building more airport capacity is a waste of money. The age of cheap air travel will end with the growing shortages of fuel which will occur by the time the extra capacity is in operation. The money needs to be spent on other transport mechanisms that are not as reliant on oil.

As a London resident I thoroughly oppose any increase airport capacity. This city is dominated by enough aircraft noise already.
