  1. This is not going to help with cutting our carbon emissions. It will increase them. 2. We hear every airplane that goes above us onto Gatwick. By adding another runway. The noise pollution will be doubled. 3. We get a black sludge residue from the planes which coats our patio, drive, outdoor furniture and plants. This will increase and become intolerable. Not good for the environment. 4. The value of our properties will decrease as the number of aircraft flying overhead increases. 5. Traffic using the airport will obviously increase causing more pollution, congestion and the roads can not accommodate the extra traffic. 6. Please do not expand Gatwick. The infrastructure, environment and wellbeing of people living under the flight path can not accommodate any more.
