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 new taxes on appliances that contribute to carbon emissions, but we're not sure if you want these to be applied based on the carbon cost of manufacturing appliances, or the carbon cost of using appliances.
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.
