The coPortavoz of the state management of we can, Pablo Fernández, has insisted on criticism of the expansions of the airports of El Prat and Barajas and has even admitted that he hopes that these investments announced by the government will not reach that destination, but to encourage that destiny, but to encourage
The conventional railway.
In addition, he has left the door open to penalizing the use of aircraft, even gaining the price of flights, as a dissuasive measure against less polluting means of transport.
“The 3,200 million who want to invest, and that we hope that they do not be realized, we hope that they are allocated to conventional railroad and sustainable transport in cities,” he said in an interview with Europe Press.
In his view, these great projects are “contrary” to sustainability policies that should be adopted to fight climate change.
“The measures required by climate change are antithetical with certain infrastructures such as the expansion of the Prat and Barajas – consider -. In addition, obviate one of the great problems of the country as is the lack of cohesion and territorial vertebration that Spain suffers
indoor”.
Therefore, from the ‘purple’ training, they bet on investing in the middle and short distance railway and promoting sustainable mobility in metropolitan areas instead of using contaminating means of transport, such as the plane.
Moreover, do not rule out the price of air tickets or close air jaciones that have similar railway alternative: “You have to study the best measures or the most dissuasive ones so that those contaminating means of displacement means are not used so intensely”
.
According to Pablo Fernández, “Sustainable transport is not that it is the future, is that it is the only option.”
“We have to study and apply measures that promote or privileged means of transport that are more sustainable and less polluting and if the territory is also better, I think it is unbeatable,” he has feed.
