Expanding the airport would exacerbate issues related to noise pollution, air quality, and carbon emissions. Additional air traffic will negatively affect nearby communities. Moreover, it would contradict the UK's commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and combat climate change. The need to protect local ecosystems and minimize the aviation industry's contribution to global warming underscores the importance of pursuing sustainable alternatives to airport expansion.
