I am strongly opposed to airport expansion and a second runway in the middle of a climate emergency. It will definitely increase carbon emisions, pollution and noise. We should be discouraging air travel and making alternatives such as rail much cheaper and more attractive. Why can't we tax airline fuel properly and use the money to subsidise rail travel?
