Money Held and not used for the purpose it was Donated is Theft

Although plastic bag pollution has come down dramatically, it still isn't enough! It has to stop! Its heartbreaking to see images on the news, of marine animals and mammals with plastic bags in their stomachs😔

The Power HIT one-time-use 'disposable' phone charger, a new product owned by the 'Solent Group'. are now being sold around the UK. At £3 a piece, these chargers have a great appeal and seem to be a useful product. However they could have a potentially devastating impact on the environment. Marketed as 'Disposable', these chargers contain electronics, including a rechargable lithium ION battery, which are harmful to the environment and should not be sent to landfill. Such use of these batteries is wasteful. They contain resources of which there is a finite amount, and recycling of these batteries could cut down on carbon emissions. Ontop of that, they contain plastics and other materials which are not bio-degradable. This means it could take thousands of years for these materials to break down. This is harmful to wildlife and our ecology. Please sign my petition to stop this product, and others like it, from being sold around the UK.

Plastic pollution is a major global problem which impacts our environment and ultimately our food chain. Plastic is now found at all levels of the marine ecosystem right from plankton and the fish we eat all the way up to those devastating images of whales, turtles and seabirds with stomachs clogged up with plastic. It is not enough that we sit back and do nothing and expect someone else to deal with the problem. Every individual has a responsibility to minimise their plastic waste by recycling, using reusable containers and drinks bottles, refusing single use plastic bags and also by picking up rubbish they see on beaches. However, at some point we need a stance to be taken by our local Councils and Governments to impose bans on wasteful practices. Research has shown that encouragement and education is not always enough - this needs to be enforced by legislation. Alternative technologies are out there - compostable containers are available which are up to the job. Hobart has just become the first city in Australia to recently vote to impose this ban on their takeaway businesses and it is time that the UK stepped up and led the way with this initiative. Cornwall is world renowned for its beauty and heritage together with its stunning beaches and there have been huge efforts made to improve our beach quality over the years. It is no surprise that national charity Surfers Against Sewage and the beach cleaning movement #2MinuteBeachClean both started in Cornwall. We lead the way with educating people about the dangers of ocean plastic - now let our Council step up and make a real difference to the oceans of plastic which is clogging up our environment.

Our once beautiful city is dirty, smelly and unpleasant. Rats and disease soon follow.

7 million NON recyclable cups are used everyday in the UK. Where does everyone think they are going to go. This needs to stop NOW! Everyday something isn't done we damage our earth. This is just the UK.

All the surrounding communities are against this development. There are lots of health risks involved for the people living within a 10km radius of this plant. The plant will be storing waste at the property which is dangerous as it heats up. If this were to catch fire at ground level many people would be forced to ingest the harmful toxins produced. Transport of the Waste to the plant causes another issue, with huge lorries coming and going from the property throughout the day. The company will be self regulated which means they would be responsible for reporting their own breaches to the authorities. In other plants owned by the same company there has been over 1000 breaches recorded. There are lots of reasons why we feel this is not the area for this type of plant and would urge people to support us by Signing the petition. Save our future generations by saying no to incineration.

Not very healthy to have those rubbishes on our streets. Not very respectful from council. No consideration for the public. Save the binmen jobs and no cut.

The Wolf killed as it escaped was part of an important breeding program and this loss has a crucial effect on that program.

if streets are cleaner it encourages a healthier atmosphere that promotes an idea of community. In addition we think pollution is a massive issue in towns and cleaning up this issue would mean people are more aware of this global issue.

As this make it very difficult for the drivers to see and 9 out of 10 teams said they didn't want it, this would make the sport more dangerous

This is important for the future of our ecosystem as much of this packaging is now polluting our oceans or building up relentlessly on landfill sites.
