Heathrow Airport said it was committed to addressing climate change, but this was best tackled through "constructive engagement and working together to address the issue".
A live Twitter stream apparently launched by protesters at Heathrow suggested two people had been struggling to get a drone off the ground. Heathrow Pause claimed the airport was using "signal jamming to frustrate" early drone flights. Both the airport and police refused to comment on "security matters".
希斯罗机场承诺将致力解决气候变化问题,但最好是通过建设性的接触和共同努力来解决。
一个显然是由希斯罗机场抗议者管理的推特账号暗示两位抗议者很难起飞无人机。“停止希斯罗”账号宣称机场用信号干扰早先的无人机起飞。机场和警方都以“安全问题”拒绝评论。
jam 除了名词是果酱的意思,做动词用还有“用力推”,使···卡住,使··不能运转;jam or jam up 堵塞 jam out:随y音乐起舞
Expansion 'illogical'
One protester at the airport, James Brown, travelled from Exeter to get involved in the action.
Mr Brown, a 54-year-old former GB and Ireland paralympian, said: "It's largely a protest against the fact our government declared a climate emergency in April and straight after approved a third runway for Heathrow. There's no logic to that.
"Any disruption that might be caused to travellers is nothing compared to the imminent climate breakdown we are facing.
"We are running out of time to sort this out."
Mr Brown, who is registered blind, simply held the drone above his head inside the exclusion zone and said he would be handing himself to police for arrest.
扩张的“非逻辑性”
一位机场抗议者,James Brown,从Exeter专门来到机场参与这场抗议。Brown先生,一位 54岁的大英帝国及爱尔兰地区的前残奥会选手,说道:这是一场很大程度上抗议我们的政府在四月份宣称气候面临紧急情况之后反而直接通过了希斯罗机场第三条跑道的计划。这之间没啥逻辑。
“所有可能给乘客带来的混乱完全不能和我们迫在眉睫的气候紊乱问题比较”
“我们没有时间解决这个问题了。”
Brown先生,注册为盲人,仅仅是在管制地带将无人机申至头顶,他表示自己将会自首。
