28th March 2008 | Issue 626 - TERMINAL DISASTER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT - Yesterday was the start of another inglorious chapter in the story of air travel as Heathrow Terminal 5 (T5) officially opened. After the whopping £4.3 billion spent on essentially a better-lit new cattle shed, it should have been a red letter day for British Airways.
