I strongly object to the proposed new runway at Gatwick airport. 1. Aircraft noise from the existing runway has noticeably worsened over the past few years and blights the lives of those who live close to the flight paths. Any further increase will place an unaccaptable burden on residents, disturbing sleep as well as affecting general amenity of residents' property. 2. We are facing a climate emergency. Both at a national and at a local level it is imperative to seek ways to reduce carbon footprint and not to massively increase it.
