15304 Jenny LundhDo you, or do you not mean what you say about carbon reduction?
15305 AnonymousI am a college student studying Geography at A-Level and in particular, this conflict. I have researched both sides of the arguement and I have to say, I strongly believe we should say no to this.
15306 Gordon PickeringAll this projected expense would be better put into giving us a reasonable national network for cycles and wheelchairs
15307 Gordon PickeringAll this expenditure would be be better spent in contributing to an improved national network for cycles and wheelchairs.
15308 Mrs. Stephanie LodgeMy husband and I absolutely object to any airport expansion on principle but especially Heathrow where it involves the destruction of many villages, Churches and local communities who've been there for over one millenia. We are absolutely disgusted at the thought of the change of use from Houses of God to temples for moneychangers, eg the serving of out-of-town developments as most of the Heathrow expansion will be. It will not serve the nearest towns the money will simply go back into BAA's coffers. The jobs will only be there during the construction and we've been there before with the 4+ year public inquiry. We've heard it all before, same old theories to justify the expansion of T5 and look at that farce! NO, NO, NO. Either you're for climate change or you're against it. We have no more time to mess around with climate change. NO TO HEATHROW EXPANSION AND RUNWAY 3. DON'T KILL THE HEART OF OUR GREEN AND PLEASANT LAND WITH CONCRETE AND TARMAC, AND DON'T ADD NOISE POLLUTION TO YOUR TALLY OF ENVIRONMENTAL IRRESPONSIBILITY. Yours faithfully, Mr. and Mrs. W. J. and S. M. Lodge
15309 Clifton HughesThe environment, and global warming, should come top of our list of our priorities - we are shitting in our own nest but we can't move to another one. Fuel tax should be imposed and other means of transport promoted.

15321 Linda HendersonIt is irresponsible and unconscienable to fly more planes. Carbon emissions are destroying the earth, we are slowly killing off the eco system with our greed and childlike irresponsible behaviour. E.g. Holiday flights for £39? What about air pollution and the incessant roaring of the jet engines overhead, drowning out the birds, destroying the quality of peace which we all need to live a healthy existence. Money doesn't talk if swears, so one writer wrote and here you can see it at work. i live in Blackheath, SE3 which was a quiet, environment before March 2008. Now we are on 6 flight paths and all I can hear is huge jets soaring overhead. It is intolerable, depressing and I am putting my house on the market to get away to where the jets don't roar overhead and to where I can hear the birds sing, You cannot hear them over the sounds of the planes. Linda Henderson
15322 Bettina Falkenbergwe are telling people to fly less to reduce their carbon footprint and at the same time we are expanding airports as if there were no tomorrow. Shortsited or what?
15323 Gill BowerThis is sheer lunacy. We have to change our behaviour now!
15324 Richard TaylorWould significantly reduce the standard of living and may force us to move house.

15327 max falkenbergStop that already to big pollution generator!!!
15328 D Brawnlets see some common sense and less messing with our environment

15331 Karin Howellsthe government should invest in public transport and concentrate on making it cheaper and better. Planes are not the mode of transport of the future anymore
15332 lisa wallsermoney, greed, money thats all you think about !!why don't you stop giving yourselves fat pay rises and added benefits. our taxes are not to be mis-used in this way, we work extremely hard for our small incomes and get very angry when our taxes are mis- spent. we want the money spent on cycle paths, trains and buses not planes. what do we have to do to make you listen!!!!

15344 Caroline QuickBuilding a third runway would be disastrous locally and would be disastrous in the wider world: by encouraging more flying CO2 emissions are being increased instead of being curtailed, which you know is what's urgently needed. Please think long term and stop ignoring the evidence all around you!!
15345 prush allurii'm currently working on the preliminaryies of an experimental film and a short based on the issue, from a more artistic persepctive, than journalistic.

15347 Mulkina MackayI thought we were all about LOWERING our carbon footprint? Why should we be fined by our councils for not recycling when YOU are causing more pollution than we are? Will you be fined too?!
15348 Gill KiddThe Government is committed to reducing CO2 emissions - then why is it allowing expansion of Heathrow? Does it think this is going to reduce the number of flights?
15349 Joy EdwardsAs the costs of flights increases and more people become aware of the environmental cots also there will be a drop in the number of people flying so why build another runway. As for air freight, we should be encouraging support of local suppliers
15350 AnonymousWe live on Selwyn Avenue in Richmond, Surrey and the noise created by the planes in the morning and night is very noticeable. Enivronmentally, it can't be good for us and our neighbours and I worry about the impact of more flights and more terminals being built. I want the government and BAA to drop plans to further expand Heathrow.
