La ampliación de un aeropuerto en nombre de la sostenibilidad es equivalente a la exportación de la democracia a través de la guerra o al apoyo emocional mediante la hospitalización forzosa: una contradicción en los términos, la agonía de la razón.

Excellente nouvelle. Et surtout, l'avion ne devrait pas être possible quand le TGV est disponible pour une si petite distance.
C'est 50x moins émetteur de CO2 en TGV, plus confortable et au final quasi aussi rapide.
