Airport expansion will speed climate change

• There will be more frequent flights which will be flying lower on take-off.

This is absurd when the UK Parliament and local Councils have declared a Climate Emergency and we all have been advised to fly less often.

• CO2 produced by air transport in the UK has more than doubled over the last 25 years

The Government’s consultation on the future of UK aviation has shown that aviation's share of total greenhouse gas emissions could go from the current 7% to 25% by 2050 – when it is likely to be the single greatest offender.

Zero – the number of references to aircraft CO2 emissions in Southampton Airport’s Draft Master Plan 2018.

Time is running out!
