End Domestic Flights Now!
Filed under: Transport
At this time of Climate Emergency, we cannot afford to be using high emission forms of transport where viable alternatives exist. Aviation will need to bear the burden of emissions reductions along with other sectors.
You can come to the London demonstration — or the one in Manchester — or for just £5, join us on our special carriage on the train (see website for tickets) for a full fun day of aviation activism!
