On Monday 20th July, we sent an open letter to Foster + Partners asking them to pause their involvement in aviation expansion and to open a dialogue with us. We have had no reply or acknowledgment of our concerns, and they have so far refused requests for comment from the media.
In case Fosters + Partners haven't seen our letter yet, we are calling upon everyone in ACAN and all our supporters to help us bring this to their attention and send a clear message: The climate crisis cannot be ignored and we don't intend to be either!
