An Early Day Motion (EDM) is a kind of Parliamentary petition. An MP can table a motion which must be only one sentence and other MPs can sign it to show their support. There is currently an EDM before the UK Parliament concerning contaminated air:

"That this House is concerned that medical and scientific evidence shows that as many as 200,000 passengers a year are exposed to air contaminated with organophosphates and hydrocarbon compounds on UK-registered aircraft and that the number of contaminated events in one recent year reported by the British Airline Pilots Association were a record high; regrets the lack of UK research into the danger of exposure to pyrolised engine oils; notes that effective filtration systems costing less than £10,000 per aircraft are available and calls for their mandatory use to reduce serious risks to the health of the travelling public and operating crews; and believes that passengers should be informed when they have been exposed to air contamination on UK registered aircraft."

You can see the EDM for yourself here.

Please help our campaign by getting your MP to sign the EDM, it’s as easy as 1-2-3 and you can do it online right now!
