Representation ID: 2133

Received: 07/08/2008

Respondent: Mr Jon Fuller

Representation Summary:

The expansion of a polluting industry like aviation is irresponsible.
It is now absolutely clear that the planet's climate is changing dangerously, with the propect of mass loss of life. Polluting activities must be reduced by 50% globally by 2050. The UK share, of this scale of cut, is equivalent to cuts of between 80 and 90% - ruling out expansion of a number of industries, including aviation.
