Representing 30,000+ Residents in Fingal and Meath affected by aircraft noise and pollution from Dublin Airport. DAA continue to breach planning conditions.
"InfluenceMap has found that @IATA representing around 85% of the global airline industry, has a long-standing record of lobbying against the very policies needed to accelerate aviation decarbonization, including aviation fuel taxation and extending the ETS to long-haul flights"
It's not only the 781 homes facing demolition. Another 5,500 would be left uninhabitable by expansion due to noise and air pollution.
Thousands more families whose lives would be uprooted. Where will they go?

Eagerly awaited decision next week on whether the IAA can take account of the passenger cap when allocating slots

New T&E study: expansions at 20 of Europe's biggest airports blow the 1.7°C carbon budget by up to three times.
They call for Governments to halt airport expansions where they exceed fair-share carbon budgets. https://t.co/0XcGOSoZOt
Stop the NIMBYism - ALL airport expansion creates more air pollution and puts children’s lives at risk.
By making it a local skirmish you undermine its importance - no airport expansion must be allowed in a climate emergency
Noise exposure is linked to chronic stress and heart disease. It’s time to make peace and quiet a public health right https://t.co/ihSIRqQYE6 via @Conversation_E
