Having lived under the flight path of Gatwick for 30+ years the noise, pollution and frequency of flights and flight hours has increased not just around Mid Sussex but on the approach routes. Having an additional runway will only add to this problem and encourage even more people to fly. With the current government declaring a climate emergency only a few years ago going ahead with a 2nd runway is completely counterproductive to the national plan to reduce emissions and show the way to using alternative transport or encourage passengers to seriously reconsider their travel plans, look at staycations, using the internet for attending meetings and limit their flight habits. I oppose a 2nd runway at London Gatwick
