We are supposed to be demonstrating climate leadership as a country and supporting sustainable forms of transport. Expanding Luton Airport takes us in the opposite direction. Moreover, the airport is a loss-making venture. The council is in debt to the tune of half a billion pounds. And Luton Airport has a negative impact on local residents. In addition to noise pollution which extends well beyond the town itself, Luton has the most air pollution of any town of its size. This has an impact on biodiversity, but also on the health of human beings.
