We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Create a fund to retrain workers in high-carbon industries
The Government should put in place funding to retrain workers in high-carbon industries, many of whom have lost their jobs during the Covid-19 pandemic, with skills that can support a green recovery.
More details
Retraining workers in these industries would both support workers who may have lost their jobs to find new employment, and could help support a green recovery, by training them in new skills that could be deployed in other industries, such as renewables.
