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.
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you want to see more protections for primary forests, but beyond banning the cutting down of these forests, we're not sure what actions you want banned, when you refer to "enabling another company to cut down primary forests".
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
