Campaigners want delay in Bristol Airport expansion decision
22.07.09
Campaign group Stop Bristol Airport Expansion (SBAE) say emissions from the proposed Bristol Airport expansion will double, and are calling for a delay in the final decision until a report is published later this year. The Campaigners say the 125 percent increase in emissions as a result of increased flight numbers would make the airport's carbon footprint as big as the whole of Bath and North East Somerset.
SBAE is writing to North Somerset Council calling for a delay in any decision until a Government report on aviation emissions is released in December. It says that any decision made by the council before the release of the Technical Scientific Committee on Climate Change's Aviation Study would be recklessly premature.
