Pledge Against Airport Expansion
Read the Pledges
Below is the name and personal statement of opposition to airport expansion of everyone who has signed the pledge.
| No. | Name | Statement |
|---|---|---|
| 338 | Barney Smith | All fossil fuel should be taxed at a high rate, airline fuel even more so, since airlines cater for those with spare money above essential needs. |
 |
||
| 337 | CB | We don't need more airports. Climate change is already upon us and air pollution, noise pollution and environment destruction will greatly increase. Greater emphasis must be made for local personal travel, and long distance electronic communication. I am prepared to take non-direct action to stop airport expansion. |
|
||
| 336 | Miss Josie Whitney | As an active member of The Green Party I am directly opposed to the Government's airpost expansion plans, especially as it directly contradicts their pledge to tackle climate change. If the Government does not back down on its expansion plan I will use all of my power and energies to campaign against airport expansion - by supporting those existing organisations lobbying government with both my time and finacial aid, as well as working to raise awareness in my local area and encouraging mass demonstatration against airport expansion. |
|
||
| 335 | JCR | I beleive there are solutions to tackling this problem, and other forms of technology can be exploited in order to reduce air travel, and the noise and environemental pollution it causes. |
|
||
| 334 | jilliebb | I am totally opposed to the Government's plans to extend airports and concrete over the south east with yet more raods and environmentally expensive housing. I will take non-violent direct action to stop this happening - I will also refuse to vote for any prospective MP who supports these ridiculous plans and campaign to ensure that as many other ordinary people are made aware of this crazy, environmentally-destructive situation. |
|
||
| 333 | Tegan | The expansion of airports is another attempt at a short term solution to our long term problems. If the government spent more time investing in new technologies instead of supporting those that are failing the world would be a better place. Surely they've heard the phrase "Flogging a dead horse"? |
|
||
| 332 | Alan | If the government wants us to beieve that is serious about tackling climate change, then it needs to take action now to curb air travel. |
|
||
| 331 | A Putnam | I strongly dissagree with the plan to expand airports due the effect it will have on both human and natural habitats, causing both deprivation as well as unsustainable short term gain for the economy. |
|
||
| 330 | Nick Foster | We need to reduce the amount of air travel taken as the amounts of pollution generated is staggering. We must also tax aviation fuel, as other less damaging forms of transport are at an unfair disadvantage. On a local level the pollution, both air and noise blights the lives on those near the airports or on the flightpath. I will do my best to help campaigns on this issue. |
