This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We could accept a petition calling on Parliament to ban the use of plastic. However, we are not sure whether you would like the Government to encourage the use of hemp in place of plastic, or whether you would like the law to require hemp to be used in certain circumstances. You could start a new petition explaining clear what you would like to happen.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
