Widespread rumors about the expansion of Heathrow, Luton & Gatwick airports is dystopian given the state of aviation's runaway growth. Govs should focus on capping airport growth to meet net-zero by 2050, not giving a green-light to the expansion of a heavily polluting sector.

Large, polluting, dangerous SUVs are taking over our streets. But there is an alternative… Today we are proud to join the SUV Alliance and present its 5-point manifesto for safer, fairer streets, without SUVs. suv-alliance.org.uk #SaferStreets #FairerStreets #WithoutSUVs

How can the UK government aim to meet net-zero by 2050 and simultaneously green-light the expansion of a heavily polluting sector? The decision to expand Heathrow airport sends the completely wrong message about where we should be headed. theguardian.com/politics/2025/…

There's no credible way the UK can expand Heathrow airport and still meet net zero by 2050. Capping growth isn't a death sentence. It should instead be seen as an chance to grow its green industries and achieve the massive transition it needs to undergo in the next 30 years.

Every year £1bn is lost at sea by not charging shipping emissions. Charging ships for their fair share of UK shipping emissions is a win-win. The costs would mostly be borne by large, profitable ship operators at next to no cost to consumers. ➡️ bit.ly/3XgMdZu

No tax on shipping fuel or charges on shipping emissions means UK taxpayers are subsidising the sector by millions of pounds every day. A shipping emissions charge would raise £1bn a year for the gov without harming the economy. Watch the full video ➡️ youtu.be/47PYRXJb9Fg

How does the UK government expect to reach net-zero by 2050 while expanding its most heavily trafficked airports? First Heathrow, now Gatwick. This is a crucial moment for limiting growth and scaling green fuels, not pushing for yet more expansion. theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/f…

Growth and our climate do not need to be a loggerheads. There are plenty of growth opportunities within aviation that don't come with setting off a "climate bomb", our UK Director Anna Krajinska explains. Listen to the full interview 👉 bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
