I am concerned that it would: -increase the release of greenhouse gases, which are responsible for the climate emergency we’re facing -create more pressure on the rail and road networks serving the airport, with 76 million more passengers per year adding to a further decline in air quality -undermine the government’s aviation strategy. The proposal is for a new runway – not bringing an existing runway into regular use, as claimed.
