Existing air traffic noise causes a huge disturbance, particularly at night. I am woken by air traffic noise even with my windows closed. Existing air traffic disturbance is affecting my sleep and consequently my physical and mental health. Any increase in air traffic as a result of the runway proposal would cause significant harm to residents living within the flight paths. Highly concerned about increase in carbon emissions. In order to mitigate the very destructive impacts of climate change (some we are already seeing) such schemes that would result in increased carbon emissions should not be supported. The proposal would cause significant harm to the environment and planet and fail to take into consideration future generations. I urge you to dismiss the scheme.
