Many other airports in Europe are also facing possible night restrictions as the NIMBYS scent govts being more sympathetic to environment issues mainly due to legal CO2 targets.
Maybe, but noise and CO2 are quite separate issues. If curbing noise means flight diversions and subsequent positioning, not to mention lower fleet utilisation, then CO2 output can only go in one direction - up.
