Heathrow Expansion

Heathrow Expansion refers to the plan to add a third runway at London's Heathrow Airport, which is one of the busiest airports in the world. The aim is to increase capacity to accommodate more flights and passengers, boosting the UK's economy and enhancing global connectivity. However, this expansion is controversial due to concerns about environmental impact, including noise pollution and increased carbon emissions. Supporters argue it will create jobs and improve travel options, while opponents worry about the effects on local communities and the environment. The project has faced legal challenges and ongoing public debate.
