Who we are

The Aviation Environment Federation (AEF) is the leading UK non-governmental organisation (NGO) campaigning on the environmental and health impacts of aviation. Founded in 1975, we represent communities living around airports and campaign for sustainable aviation practices to protect people and the planet.

Our mission

Our mission is to secure policies and measures that effectively limit noise, emissions and other environmental impacts from the aviation sector. We work across local, national, and international levels to achieve this.

What we do

Our work covers a diverse range of issues, including:

Aircraft Noise

  • Campaigning for quieter aircraft and airport practices to reduce noise pollution.
  • Challenging airport expansion plans that threaten communities and wildlife habitats.

Climate Change

  • Advocating for the inclusion of aviation in greenhouse gas emission reduction targets.
  • Promoting the development and deployment of sustainable aviation fuels.

Air Pollution

  • Raising awareness of the harmful health impacts of aircraft emissions.
  • Pushing for stronger air pollution regulations for airports and airlines.

Biodiversity

  • Protecting wildlife and natural habitats affected by aviation activities.

Public Health

  • Researching and publicizing the health consequences of aircraft noise and air pollution.

Our approach

We believe in:

  • Evidence-based advocacy: We base our recommendations on scientific evidence and data.
  • Collaboration: We work with diverse stakeholders, including communities, experts, and policymakers.
  • Transparency: We are open and accountable in our decision-making processes.

Our impact

Over the years, our work has:

  • Prevented the unnecessary expansion of Heathrow Airport and protected surrounding communities.
  • Secured more stringent regulations to reduce aircraft noise and emissions.
  • Increased public awareness of the environmental impact of aviation.
