Because of the alarming damage UK public waste is having on the environment.

Plastic waste that escapes into the open environment is threatening all life on our planet. Here is an easy way to enable future UK plastics to be safe.

Mark Rylance, the well-respected actor, has resigned as an Associate Artist of the RSC because they have done a spomsorship deal with petrochemical giant, BP. Mark Rylance said: “I do not wish to be associated with BP any more than I would with an arms dealer, a tobacco salesman or anyone who wilfully destroys the lives of others alive and unborn. Nor, I believe, would William Shakespeare.” As a member of the RSC, neither do I in this time of trying to protect the planet want to see this major company who already brings in a substantial amount of money into the UK take 'thirty pieces of silver' off this international polluter. The RSC is our institution and a major contributor to world culture. We need to say that in their position, they need to use their influence to save the planet so that future generations can enjoy their magnificent work. Please sign if you agree.

UK government has declared a climate emergency and desperately needs to reduce pollution. Now solar prices have fallen the Government has now ended financial incentives for generating solar energy in your home. Fair enough. It now appears to want to introduce disincentive. A seriously 'green' government with a 'green deal' should be making basic solar panels obligatory on every new build!

To allow bees, butterflies and other pollinators to flourish. Wild flowers and grasses provide a feast for wildlife which has been decimated due to the massive loss of habitat, the over-use of pesticides and herbicides and careless cutting.

Because the supermarkets are the most powerful in terms of making demands on their suppliers to deliver products without plastic.

Fast fashion is a major contributor to climate change. Industries are mass producing clothing items and soon after dumping them in landfills. Fast fashion ultimately involves severely underpaid workers and sometimes even child workers. It is also one of the biggest contributions to climate change; the chemicals used to create these clothing items contribute to the greenhouse gases that are destroying our planet. The industry sends 10,000 clothing items to landfills every 5 minutes playing a major role in waste issues in Britain. It is also one of the biggest causes of water waste with around 20% of water used being wasted. It's time for these appalling practices to change. By signing this petition you are joining us in telling the Government that we the public will not stand for the environmental degradation caused by the fashion industry.

We need to reduce waste in this country, canned multipack goods, the cans are recycled the plastic wrap isn't.

If you watched the prgogramme on BBC last night you will already know why! We don’t need these but if we are going to use them let’s make them without plastic. This is so important in the fight for our planet.

Vitally Impoertant. To cut down on plastic, on waste, and create less micro plastic particles in the air and water which is already getting into the food chain from cellular creatures, and on up into fish and Humans.

This is important because we as a species, need to act together to fight against climate change, the biggest challenge the world has ever faced. We need to act together against this as communities and as a human race. One thing to we can do to fight against this is the plantation of trees. Beechwood park is a local park in Newport that has a lot of space for trees to be planted. We need to take this moment to plant more trees against this major threat! This park can be one of many to plant trees and ensure that it's doing its best to fight climate change.

The percentage of woodland cover in the UK remains at 13 per cent, with 10 per cent in England, 15 per cent in Wales, 19 per cent in Scotland and 8 per cent in Northern Ireland. The tree planting is increasingly important in the fight against climate change, with around 9.5 million tonnes of carbon dioxide being removed from the atmosphere by Scottish forests.
