Registration statement: I am concerned about the increase in air traffic generally in light of the unfolding climate crisis and the damage to the climate being done by air travel. I also have a personal concern about aircraft noise over Tunbridge Wells which is increasing again post-Covid, with planes flying over the town much more, and often lower than they should. Increasing the air traffic at Gatwick seems quite contrary to the Government's expressed intention to limit carbon emissions and to achieve net zero by 2050.
