Rejected petition Keeping seas free of harmful waste

More details

Every year thousands of tons of waste is dumped by large sewage companies off the shores of Great Britain; harming our sealife and destroying the beautiful beaches that we all enjoy. This is something that has been talked about but little action has been taken. Pressure groups like Surfers Against Sewage have been battling for many years against dangerous waste and sewage being dumped close to our shores. This is something that should be taken more seriously and needs review.

Keep are beaches clean
