| No. | Name | Statement |
|---|---|---|
| 90 | Angie | I'm sigining this in response to this morning's news about the acceleration of global warming. |
 |
||
| 89 | Liz Russell | I am totally against airport expansion - an insane idea when what we should really be doing is cutting down on all forms of polluting transport |
|
||
| 88 | daniel | I believe that airport expansion is unnecessary and insane in view of the very serious threats posed by carbon emmissions and the destructive effects of mass tourism |
|
||
| 87 | Andrew King | Ban night flights. Tax air travel. Transport goods by rail or boat. |
|
||
| 86 | Patrick Browne | Airport expansion is unnecessary. It will only leed to people living further apart from eachother and feeling like they need to fly, thus compounding the breakdown in community caused by cars. |
|
||
| 85 | Rob White | We need to live sustainably. Air travel on a massive scale is unsustainable, therefore we must manage a decrease in air travel. I shall oppose any attempt at expanding the UKs airports. |
|
||
| 84 | Phil Pritchard | Fossil fuels should be used sparingly and should not be burnt up. Air travel prices do not cover the true price of the damage it causes to our atmosphere and the environment. I won't watch the health of our planet deteriorate as a result of continued extravagant flying and associated airport building. |

| 83 | JonB | Enough is enough! Get a sense of perspective: when flying around the planet, we can quite easily spend an extra hour getting to an existing airport, or waiting another day for an available flight. Flying costs: o costs land for airports o costs quality of life for those under flight paths o costs health for all of us through ozone depletion by high level aircraft pollution. So if there are insufficient flights for all of us: make it cost more money. It's just simple supply and demand. And we don't want to subsidise this polluting industry with our land and our health. |

| 82 | Krispy | an aeroplane taking off from Gatwick gives off the same ammount of CO2 emmissions as london rush hour traffic on a monday morning....dowe really need the expansion? things like this dont make sense except to the gov...its all about the money, what about the mess, the pollution, the noise and the damage? |
|
||
| 81 | Grizzles | No more night flights |
