  4. In a #climateemergency, approving a 3rd runway to #MelbourneAirport will increase #Aviation emissions by 55%, when we need to reduce emissions. Alternative fuels such as SAF is magical thinking, will not compensate.

    Major #Auspol media will ignore climate impacts of this decision.

  5. Melbourne Airport agrees to clear the hurdle to long-awaited rail link
    abc.net.au/news/2024-07-08/vic

    Melbourne Airport management has finally backed-down from their insistence that the railway station and approaching rail line be a slow and expensive underground build, and have agreed to have it built above-ground.
    The government's response should be "Well, duh, we're *giving* you a world-class transport link that will help improve your business and increase your customer happiness."
    The delay has made no sense at all, and I get the impression some people running Melbourne Airport tried to politicise the issue in the lead-up to the last state election.
    Victorians want the government and airport to stop squabbling get on with the job.

  10. At least 150 people packed a Town Hall in Melbourne’s north western suburb of Keillor opposed to #MelbourneAirport 3rd Runway plan presently before Federal Infrastructure Minister King. Effect on childrens learning, Increase in #Noisepollution, #airpollution, and #aviationemissions adding to #climatecrisis highlighted.
    Melbourne Airport has refused to release a health impact study for the 3rd runway proposal.

  11. Domestic aviation emissions make up about 8% of Australia's #transportemissions. They reduced during the pandemic, but with expectations to grow again.

    "Emissions from domestic aviation were 8 Mt CO2-e in 2019, or 8% of total transport emissions. In 2022, emissions in this sector were 6 Mt CO2-e. As activity returns to pre-pandemic levels, emissions are projected to reach almost 9 Mt CO2-e in 2023, and then grow steadily with activity to 10 Mt CO2-e in 2035." says Australia’s emissions projections 2022 report.

    Domestic #AviationEmissions are growing when we need to be reigning them in. It is the wrong time to be expanding airports (3rd runway at #MelbourneAirport) which will induce more emissions.

  12. Little is being done to address aviation emissions, and this past week the aviation industry has been holding their 'slot' conference here in Melbourne. Never mind #MelbourneAirport has a development project for a 3rd runway which will induce further climate emissions, air pollution, traffic congestion

    Brace for impact. International aviation Net Zero 2050 flightpath crashes in Melbourne.
