Rejected petition Ban production of paper advertising
Rejected on
Stop forced adverting via printed material.
There is enough broadcasted advertising from companies and charities on TV and local radio channels. These advertise local businesses daily, without needing random advertising, in paper or plastic format, being posted through doors. This creates waste on a vast scale. Means stranger's are often coming to the door and distributing germs as well as unwanted post, most of which, goes straight into recycling for recollection!!?? Its an insane concept for today's proactive world!
