Sir, – Full marks to Trevor White for his excellent opinion piece “The Aer Lingus and DAA double act would be comedy genius if it wasn’t deadly serious” (Notwithstanding the fact that we live on an island, 32 million people a year flying in and out of Dublin is simply creating an unsustainable level of pollution. I hope the authorities stick to their guns and set the limit even lower than 25 million passengers in the years to come.
Thankfully we in Ireland are making real progress in this regard and there is no need for Mr White to feel embarrassed by the industry he works in, as he writes towards the end of his piece. The technology is there to decarbonise the skies and there is real commitment by Irish aviation – more carrot and less stick would help us get there quicker.
