Rejected petition We call for a cross party environmental inquiry and environmental audit.
We are calling for a cross party environmental inquiry and environmental audit into the short, medium and long term consequences for the United Kingdom. This should involve proper scientific advice and extend into universities to find the right experts in the various fields required to perform this
More details
It is clear to most informed people that a looming environmental disaster is very likely to occur if nothing is done to prevent it. Greenland glaciers started melting 2 months early this year, the beginning of a chain reaction that will result in the desalination and slowing of the ocean conveyor. The UK will experience temperatures similar to Canada and ultimately to the death and sulphurfization of the worlds oceans. We should have been a World leader in Climate Change !"

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
This petition has been rejected because it is unclear what action you would like taken, and which environmental issues you would want this inquiry to look at.
There already exists a cross party Committee of MPs that looks at some of the issues you are concerned about - the Environmental Audit Committee. You can learn more about its work by visiting its website http://www.parliament.uk/business/committees/committees-a-z/commons-select/environmental-audit-committee/
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
