Closed petition Tax Peat, Don't Ban It.

Like when landfill tax was introduced, the recycling industry flourished, with peat Parliament should do the same.

Ban on peat without substitute will kill the industry. Taxing as well can cover the peat coming from overseas as in pots with plants.

Taxing peat as the landfill was will allow the recycling industry to adapt if not, we as consumers will pay the price and will very costly. PAS100 compost will not replace peat.
