Rejected petition: Invest in airborne firefighting equipment
Rejected on
The recent wild fires around the UK have been incredibly scary for us all. This petition asks the government to invest in airborne firefighting equipment.
In future, wild fires will only become increasingly common, therefore it is necessary to take precautions to prevent these wild fires from becoming out of control.
One way we can do this is by investing in airborne firefighting equipment, such as planes and helicopters , giving us another way to combat these fires.
