The expansion of Gatwick is completely at odds with the vital need to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. The potential doubling of capacity will have a seriously deleterious impact on the quality of life for those living in a large area surrounding the airport. In my view the proposal is only driven by the greed of the airport operators without any consideration of the serious impact on the environment and the wellbeing of the many thousands of residents, whose quality of life stands to be degraded by the expansion.
