I am very strongly against this expansion because of the environmental and noise impacts on the area. My parents live in Capel, and the noise there is already terrible and has become much worse over the past few years, with planes going overhead day and night. Occasionally I work from their house and I can't even have the windows open because the noise means I cannot hear phone and video calls. This expansion would have an unacceptable negative impact on local communities and should not be permitted to take place. Everyone is aware that climate change is an extinction level threat facing the human race. Proposals such as this, which completely ignore this fact and will have a negative environmental impact, are beyond belief.
