Proceeding contribution from Karen Buck (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 January 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Transport Infrastructure.
Transport Infrastructure
My right hon. Friend understands the symbolic significance of Heathrow expansion in the context of the climate change agenda. Does he accept that there is enormous scepticism about the compatibility of the increase in flights and aviation emissions with Britain's capacity to meet our reduced carbon emissions target by 2050? Can he tell us what proportion of that target will be accounted for by aviation emissions?
