Milford Haven and adjacent towns to the growing industrial petrochemical and power industries are not monitored independently by Pembrokeshire County Council. We need constant air pollution monitoring, due to the possibility of daily pollution from the nearby industrial complexes. which could be a direct threat to our health and well being, especially the young and old. Any possible pollution is supposed to be carried away by the use of tall chimneys/stacks, but on days of still weather conditions, any pollutants can fall within a one and a half mile footprint, which could potentially cause massive health issues such as Asthma, Cancer and many other life threatening conditions to inhabitants living in Pembrokeshire. Air pollution monitoring would be the first step in helping us in detecting and taking any necessary preventative measures against these health threats. Please sign our petition, thank you.

The National Trust owns 8,000 hectares of moorland around Kinder Scout, Bleaklow and Ladybower Reservoir in the Derbyshire Peak District. It’s a honey pot for tourists, walkers and runners who love these open landscapes. You might think they are all wild, healthy habitats, rich in wildlife and untouched by human hand. The reality couldn’t be further from this (at least, not on those moors that are managed for grouse-shooting). There it can be more like a wildlife war-zone, where only the grouse are allowed to live in peace. Despite being part of the Dark Peak ‘Site of Special Scientific Interest’, crimes against protected wildlife still occur on these remote uplands, but can rarely be proven. Nothing is allowed to exist on these moors if it conflicts with profitable grouse-shooting. This includes birds of prey like the Peregrine Falcon, Goshawk and Hen Harrier, as well as the Mountain Hare. All on National Trust land too! Concern over the ways these moors are intensively managed by grouse-shooting tenants for profit has been growing for some time. The RSPB have twice produced publications entitled “Peak Malpractice” to highlight these illegal activities. Early in 2016 a man was secretly filmed with a gun and a decoy Hen Harrier on these National Trust moors. Now, the Trust has had enough. In June it served notice on its shooting tenant to vacate the land. It said it no longer had confidence he was committed to the delivery of their vision for the land. We totally agree, and we fully support the National Trust's stance. Shooting rights on these National Trust moorland estates were let out to a single, commercial tenant. Whilst this undoubtedly brings in extra income, it does nothing to enhance the Trust’s reputation, nor the richness of the landscapes around the Kinder Scout plateau, Bleaklow or the Upper Derwent above Ladybower. Management for grouse-shooting will always conflict with the Trust's own vision for restoring the High Peak, and will encourage crimes against wildlife to continue. This petition is promoted by a coalition of over a dozen local outdoor and environmental groups who care about the moorlands in Derbyshire and the Peak District (e.g. Derbyshire Ornithological Society, Dark Peak Fell Runners, Derbyshire Mammal Group and Buxton Ramblers). So we call on the National Trust to go further. . . we want it to seize this opportunity and make the moorland estates of Hope Woodlands and Park Hall completely shooting-free. Permanently. We ask the National Trust not to appoint another shooting tenant here at all. Instead let wildlife and vegetation recover and thrive naturally. More information and an up-to-date list of 'sponsors' of this petition can be found at www.nomoorshooting.blogspot.co.uk (Note: It has also been produced in a paper-format for local people in Derbyshire to sign directly. So, if you intend to sign the printed version, it wouldn't be fair to sign this online version as well.)

Please accept the advice from the soil association and other word leading scientists that glyphosate is harmful to health when ingested in any quantities and the use of it as a pre harvest dessicant has been shown to cause high levels of glyphosate in the grain and humans who consume wheat soya barley based products show significant levels of glyphosate in their urine. It is a WHO suspected carcinogen a hormone disruptor damages the gut biome and may contribute to auto immune disease. The EU has refused a full license and given only a short temporary approval to glyphosate and deprecates it's use as a dessicant. My wife and I both have developed auto immune diseases and we both were exposed to glyphosate spray mist directly and in our food through no choice of our own as it is almost impossible to buy glyphosate free produce. Products that may contain glyphosate from pre harvest desiccation include flour, bread, sauces ,pizza, pastry, beer, soy sauce, biscuits, any meals using wheat as a thickener (most do) etc ... https://www.farminguk.com/news/Soil-Association-writes-to-major-bread-companies-asking-them-to-avoid-glyphosate_42519.html

The proposed plant sits within a cluster of fields just across the road from both an Area of outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) regions. There are two Bronze age barrows that are Scheduled Ancient Monuments and a third non-scheduled Iron Age round that are in close proximity. Concerns exist on both the visual impact on the beautiful countryside of National archaeological importance and the environmental impact this brings. http://www.heritagegateway.org.uk/Gateway/Results_Single.aspx?uid=MCO8831&resourceID=1020. We believe that the affect on this Archaeological site* will be profound. As such we think that the decision should lie in the Secretary of Sates hands. *Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979 Section 61(9) Lets not set a detrimental precedence that allows the subsidies for burning Fossil Fuels and polluting an area heavily devoted to Green energy sources. Join us in opposing this inappropriate development.

Global warming is the biggest threat this country faces

The current illogical vehicle tax is based on laboratory determined exhaust emissions. Whilst in theory this might sound a good way collecting revenue and at the same time encouraging owner/drivers to buy more efficient vehicles, it does not take into account other factors. The main factors are, load carried, driving style and distance travelled. For example, the owner of a car with a high perceived emission rating standing in a driveway producing zero emissions can be contributing as much or more to the exchequer than the owner of a so called low emission car being driven a long distance badly and heavily loaded producing lots of noxious gases. So it follows then that the only logical way to tax vehicles (if contaminating the atmosphere is really the criteria) is to put all the levy on to fuel and scrap the current tax system. Maybe not popular with the masses initially, however if explained properly and honestly whilst also demonstrating how the revenue generated is being used, transparent and open policies might eventually be appreciated by all.

By removing the climate change department it is essentially sending a message that says the conservative part don't care about climate change. Theresa May has selected a cabinet that could be detrimental to the environment. The conservatives, in their election promises, promised a greener government. We now have Boris Johnson, a climate change denier, Andrea Leadsom in charge of energy; who had to ask if climate change was real and a team of people just as likely to care little for the environment. Climate change matters to everyone whether left wing or right wing. It is your future, your children's future.

Its important to me get this e petition campaign to look at bring back to uk rivers and streams with support of farmers and anglers across england and uk.

Climate change is NOT an old drab or dull issue. Is is THE single most important issue facing humanity and our species. It will define the 21st century in the way that World War defined the 20th century. It must not be ignored by the new Prime Minister. The climate is changing rapidly. This is causing rapid destruction of biodiversity and is increasingly leading to extreme weather, shrinkage of the polar ice-caps, melting of glaciers, rising sea-levels and a catastrophic change to global weather patterns. This is leading to human conflict over space, food and resources, and is the driving force behind the migrant crisis the world is experiencing. We must not ignore this issue because it will engulf us!

We as a nation are not doing enough to solve the recycling problem. Individuals on a low income cannot often afford to do what is required. If the proposals were put in place it would help everyone recycle and improve the country's carbon footprint.

Plans for a 236 hectare golf course at Coul Links near Dornoch in the Scottish Highlands could put one of Scotland’s rarest species at threat of global extinction. Fonseca’s seed fly is restricted globally to a short stretch of coast in northern Scotland. Its population is perilously small and is thought to be closely associated with Ragwort, Sow-thistle and the sand dune systems found in this area. The proposed golf course would destroy important habitat for this species and fragment the already fragile population. Stabilisation of the dunes and creation of fairways and greens will destroy the habitat for the species.

The Sankey canal is the first canal in modern industrial England accepted as the birthplace of the industrial revolution, it has the first 2 lock flights, it's crossed by the first passenger railway over one of the first viaducts, currently most of the Sankey is in dereliction indeed In filled, it still has its locks (some requiring rebuild), a viable water supply and its original reservoir, The Sankey canal is one of the most historically important canals in Britain. https://www.facebook.com/groups/127843080962417/
