London Southend Airport & Environs Joint Area Action Plan Issues & Options Paper
Representation ID: 958
Received: 25/06/2008
Respondent: Mr Dean Parrott
I strongly oppose any expansion of southend airport, on the grounds of environmental damage.
I find it strange that in a time when the government is making bold statements about cutting C02 imitions that it would sanction the expansion of any airport, let alone Southend due to its sensitive location to wildlife, conservation and green belt areas.
We are constantly being asked to do our bit for the environment, indeed next month rochford council starts it new rubbish recycling programme wereby we will be expected to filter our rubbish into three different bins, I haven't got a problem with this because I want to do my bit, I just feel there are double standards going on.
Increasing air traffic into and out of Southend will be a disaster to both the environment and the well being of everyone living in this area due to noise, pollution and more damage to the ozone.
THIS EXPANSION MUST NOT GO AHEAD!
