A small group of people acting as representatives of members of a wide range of local organisations including Norwich Friends of the Earth, Norwich Campaign against Climate Change, Norwich and Norfolk Green Parties, BROADS, and local airport-area residents held a protest at Norwich Airport yesterday in support of the climate change protests at Heathrow airport.
Between 14:30 and 15:30 local campaigners handed out educational leaflets to passengers leaving from Norwich airport to European destinations. Councillor Rupert Read, lecturer at UEA and Norfolk Green party's lead candidate for the next European elections in 2009 said: 'We highlighted the 37% increase in passenger numbers and the increased CO2 pollution and noise pollution.'
