New CPRE's policy on aviation
The air transport industry is committed to massive expansion in the coming years. This will bring noise, traffic and new development to many parts of the countryside and undermine the Government’s goal of tackling climate change. CPRE believes the Government should develop policies to manage the growth of aviation to protect the environment and to help tackle climate change.
