Closed petition Ban PFAS in food packaging and seek to remove them from water supplies

Closed on

I want you to protect our citizens. As our government it is your responsibility to protect the people. I am asking you to stop PFAS being used in supermarket and other food packaging, and explore what action can be taken to remove or reduce their concentration in water supplies.

PFAS are known to be toxic and linked to cancer and many more life-threatening problems. They’re known as ‘forever chemicals’. Ban supermarkets from using them in packaging and stop them from being in the water we all drink. It’s your responsibility to do something about it.
