For me, the outstanding issue about the proposals to increase capacity at Gatwick Airport is related to climate change. I am totally against any proposals that will increase our greenhouse gas emissions, by increased air flights, as well as (almost certainly) increased travel to and from the airport by car. These proposals come at a time when we should be trying to reduce rather than increase the amount of air travel. I therefore object in principle, regardless of the perceived economic benefits to the area.
