Expanding an airport during the climate crisis is completely bonkers!! This is the 'biggest threat humanity has ever faced' and we need to get serious about taking action, instead of prioritising our own convenience
Our aim is to prevent the increase in passenger numbers, proposed by AMP, the owners of Leeds Bradford Airport.

Glad to support this campaign
Good luck with the campaign, it's clearly a nonsense to recognise the climate emergency and at the same time allow expansion of aviation
Airport expansion in these times of climate crisis is madness. We must reduce flights, not increase them, and find other ways to support local resilience and connection.
This expansion is an absurdity. Thank you for your work in opposing it!
I want a future for my grandchildren. Flying is destroying that future. Airport expansion is immoral, irresponsible, and should be illegal. Best wishes to all those opposing this murderous scheme.
Thankyou for your hard work
Airport expansion must be stopped if we are to meet the challenge of the climate emergency.
Thank you so much for putting your time and energy into challenging such a destructive, short-sighted and unnecessary proposal.
We have to rein in our desire for travel by plane for the sake of the planet. Not a big ask really. And who wants to live near a big airport- not me, no one should have to put up with the noise and pollution
We don’t need any more air traffic to cause further destruction to the planet and especially during these times of climate emergency and pandemic. What we need is a responsible government to invest in green energy for the future of our children and loving care for nature and the planet.
protecting the future
This is a really important campaign - we need investment in local public transport infrastructure not an expansion of polluting aviation!
For the future health of the local environment and the planet it is important that the LBA expansion does not progress
Any idea of expanding LBA is unethical and totally unjustified. Air traffic and its consequences needs drastic reduction.
I hope the campaign enjoys lots of support and succeeeds in stopping this plan.
Keep up the good work 👍🏽
Save the planet. No need to expand.
Keep up the good work!
A small step to helping our planet breath
good luck with this campaign - sadly it seems likely that a legal challenge is the only way this expansion can be stopped
Thank you for standing up to this ill conceived expansion from someone who lives beneath the flight path and is concerned with the potential increase in pollution and environmental damage.
People are managing now with much reduced flight numbers. We don’t need any more, and the planet cannot bear any more!
Climate change is upon us. It is time to take steps NOT to increase carbon dioxide and other climate warming emissions and pollutants a d in this case, DO NOT encourage more frequent air travel. It's against all logic and signed treaties on climate change.
Thank you for all your work, for supporting the LCC Climate Emergency and quality of life in Leeds
