The ATERRA campaign invites everyone to a people’s court in front of the Lisbon Local Criminal Court: a creative action in solidarity with Kiko who in 2019 interrupted a speech by the Prime Minister to publicly denounce the crime of the expansion of Lisbon airport. Kiko is now being tried for “qualified disobedience” – a sentence that can result in up to two years in prison.
Faced with the absurdity inside the courtroom, we will hold a serious trial at the door. We will indict for ecocide those responsible for the Montijo airport project and the expansion of Lisbon airport, and for the growth in air traffic. In the dock of the courtroom will sit the multinational Vinci (ANA Aeroportos), the parties that defend aviation and fossil fuels, the airlines and the big oil companies.
To the public prosecutor, who accuses Kiko of “disturbing public order and tranquillity” as he “had not communicated the holding of the demonstration to Lisbon City Council”, we propose a basic idea of justice in the 21st century: those responsible for climate crimes should be judged; the people who defend the planet should be supported and protected.
Less planes, more imagination!
Of all means of transport, the plane is the most unfair and elitist; it is the one which pollutes the most and whose emissions have increased the most. Aviation accounts for 6% of the human contribution to climate change – three times more than what has been officially assumed. A future that allows for the existence of human life and so many other species on Earth implies a present with fewer planes, as well as fewer and smaller airports.
The Portuguese government insists on building a new airport and has put forward a strategic environmental assessment (SEA) subjugated to the idea of tourism and aviation growth, which compares only three scenarios [1] (Lisbon + Montijo, Montijo + Lisbon, and Alcochete). Instead of responding to the capitalist need to expand Lisbon’s airport capacity, an SEA should respond to the planetary need to reduce aviation, and to foster alternatives, such as rail transport and local economies.
[1] All scenarios include the construction of a new airport, but in different locations. In two of the scenarios the current Lisbon airport would continue in operation.
Residents of Barbuda have been fighting the construction of an international airport - which would serve as a gateway to an even larger development - that began as islanders were in the midst of dealing with the impact of Hurricane Irma. This article, written by...
