@chadceleste.bsky.social, AEF’s Policy Manager, told MPs on the Committee that UK aviation is not decarbonising fast enough.

Consequently, airport expansion is irresponsible and the Government should be wary of an over-reliance on so-called Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAFs). 2/4

As our Policy Manager, @chadceleste.bsky.social, outlined in front of the @commonseac.parliament.uk last week, aviation is not decarbonising fast enough and other policy measures, such as demand measures and frequent flyer levies, need to be considered. 4/4

It's really important to realise that demand management can mean many things and even @thecccuk.bsky.social thinks it can grow 25%

We all know burning wood makes cough and struggle to breathe. We want the homes of the future! @mumsforlungs.bsky.social

None of this is costed in. If #aviation pays for the harms it causes then the cost benefit analysis looks very poor indeed. Please sign our petition @noairportexp.bsky.social @flightfreeuk.bsky.social petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...
