This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament
Rejected petition Ban the use of non recycled and non recyclable plastics in supermarkets.
Currently we are going through the epidemic that is destroying our planet. We might not be able to see it in person as we end up dumping it somewhere else. We have an opportunity to make a difference now.
We need to stop before it gets too late as our planet is about to reach its threshold
More details
We’ve got the evidence all around us, look at our oceans. For too long have we turned a blind eye but our sea creatures have started consuming these plastics. Even if they survive they are all part of a food chain and eventually end up in our stomachs. Then it isn’t just the wildlife that is suffering but it is us and our children. How can we provide them with a future and deny them of a healthy source of food.
We’ve started to see whales washing up on shores with plastic inside of them.
