Threats and even an explosive attack have targeted activists who speak out against airport expansion.
This is part of a political and media culture that seeks to delegitimise climate activism, while powerful aviation lobbies spread disinformation and silence dissent. 1/2

A new academic paper just confirmed what frontline communities have been shouting for decades: aviation’s “green” promises are a lie. The industry is torching the planet so the rich can keep flying.

Last week EU finance ministers dodged a catastrophe - but still chose climate cowardice.
Denmark proposed to the EU Governments that a tax on jet fuel would be off the table until 2035. Thankfully it didn't pass.

New report shows how arguments about the need to expand aviation for jobs and the economy are bullshit.
What we need is a drastic reduction of aviation and to stop all airport expansion, if want a liveable future.

NEW: Air traffic growth is not a guarantee of economic growth, despite industry claims. These claims, often echoed by governments to justify airport expansion, are undermined by new research.

These major cities have ALL banned fossil fuel adverts. These ads have massive climate and health impacts, all while targeting politically influential decision makers.

For 10 years, farmers and people from all walks of life have continuously mobilised to stop the project of a second airport in Jeju island, in South Korea.
Despite falling passenger numbers, growing ecological damage and overwhelming local opposition, the government continues to push the project.

🔴 A Climate Law for Polluters, Confirmed.

Offsets, carbon removals, and review clauses won’t phase out fossil fuels — they just buy time for polluters.

Since 1970, international tourism has exploded, from less than 200 million arrivals to almost 1.5 billion today. This was only possible due to the even larger growth of aviation, with billions of passengers carried every year. 1/5
