It would improve the environment, as less would be thrown away as well.\r\n\r\nAll that is needed is a simple system of regular collection and distribution.\r\n\r\nIt would make our society kinder, and more equitable, and allow profit making enterprises to make a significant difference while losing nothing.\r\n\r\n","committee_note":null,"state":"rejected","signature_count":16,"created_at":"2015-12-15T19:49:22.022Z","updated_at":"2017-09-09T06:09:24.309Z","rejected_at":"2015-12-18T12:00:49.219Z","opened_at":null,"closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2015-12-15T20:58:52.570Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_on":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"rejection":{"code":"irrelevant","details":"Your petition seems to be suggesting that charities and businesses should work together on this.
