“It suggests the Minister knows he is doing the wrong thing, but does not want the courts to be able to tell him that. It is like he is removing the cap with the stroke of a pen, and then putting his fingers in his ears, and going “la la la la la la”. eolasmagazine.ie/minister-bo…

"InfluenceMap has found that @IATA representing around 85% of the global airline industry, has a long-standing record of lobbying against the very policies needed to accelerate aviation decarbonization, including aviation fuel taxation and extending the ETS to long-haul flights"

It's not only the 781 homes facing demolition. Another 5,500 would be left uninhabitable by expansion due to noise and air pollution. Thousands more families whose lives would be uprooted. Where will they go? #CommunityDestruction #NoThirdRunway

Your granny will be clobbered by a 16% increase in fuel prices, but she’ll have to suck it up to stay alive. Meantime aviation pays no fuel duty or VAT on the ever-increasing number of trivial pursuits Who is on the take? @_wearepossible @LeighDay_Law @The_AEF @ChrisGPackham
Why should aviation get a bigger share of the carbon budget? Other sectors are decarbonising, but aviation is projected to become the UK’s largest emitting sector by 2040. Is this fair? 1/2

Funnelling 90%+ of all ROI air traffic into Dublin Airport benefits no one apart from DAA. It leads to overheating of local Dublin economy, unaffordable housing and traffic congestion for those living nearby. There is a better way forward. gript.ie/ireland-needs-more-…

New T&E study: expansions at 20 of Europe's biggest airports blow the 1.7°C carbon budget by up to three times. They call for Governments to halt airport expansions where they exceed fair-share carbon budgets. transportenvironment.org/art…

Stop the NIMBYism - ALL airport expansion creates more air pollution and puts children’s lives at risk. By making it a local skirmish you undermine its importance - no airport expansion must be allowed in a climate emergency
Heathrow expansion could result hundreds of premature deaths every year from additional air pollution. That's real people's lives. #AirPollution #NoThirdRunway

A new study from T&E has found expansion plans break European airports’ carbon limits. It recommends Governments should halt or refuse airport expansions where they exceed fair-share carbon budgets and end aviation’s tax exemptions and manage demand: transportenvironment.org/art…
