WE STRONGLY OBJECT TO THE PROPOSAL TO EXPAND LONDON LUTON AIPORT - NOISE from planes (landing and taking off) is already a big problem that impacts all residents in the densely populated surrounding region. An almost doubling of the number of daily flights would be harmful for tens of thousands of people! - AIR POLLUTION would increase significantly. A doubling of the number of flights might actually make air quality several times worse (it's not a linear function), and cause health problems for thousands of people. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!!! - ROAD TRAFFIC AND CONGESTION would increase significantly. Which also adds to air pollution which is harmful for residents in the region THE AIRLINE AND RELATED AIRPORT INDUSTRIES ARE DIRTY INDUSTRIES WHICH MUST BE MADE CLEAN ('GREEN') BEFORE ANY EXPANSION OF LUTON AIRPORT COULD BE CONSIDERED. PLEASE REFUSE THE APPLICATION ON HUMAN AND ENVIRONMENTAL GROUNDS UNTIL AIR TRAFFIC NO LONGER CAUSE ANY HARM
