If we are serious about the climate emergency this expansion of Luton Airport cannot go ahead. It feels as though the council is trying to grow its way out of trouble and debt which is a very short term view. For our children and grandchildren we cannot increase air traffic at a time we should be decreasing it. Have you seen the stripes on how the world has warmed in the last 100 years? We have to slow and reverse this. The airport expansion cannot in all conscience be approved knowing what we know now about the climate emergency.
