Closed Make recycling compulsory in the UK

Closed on

Our earth is suffering. We need to take action quick. In 2050 there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish. One way YOU can help to save this earth is to help make recycling compulsory in the UK. Signing this petition brings you one step further to saving our earth!

In 12 years the earth will face irreversible damage if we do not act now. 160,000 plastic bags are produced each SECOND and are being dumped into the sea. We need your help! Making recycling compulsory in the UK will mean all the recyclable waste will be remade in a sustainable way, producing less waste and less trash in the ocean. It will help to save the future generations.
