I am objecting to the extent of the expansion, almost doubling the number of passengers and therefore the flights is not consistent with the country's efforts to combat climate change. Already there are concerns about carbon footprints and pollution, how can this expansion possibly be in line with those? Clearly this will adversely affect the environment and our air. I am also concerned about the increased number of roads which will be built on the countryside - the airport is close to our village and we have already seen a huge increase in the number of flights since we have lived here.
