What the petition asks
In recent years there has been a concentrated focus on recycling. We are encouraged to recycle wherever possible, yet most takeaways/restaurants have shifted from using recyclable packaging (paper/card) to non recyclable polystyrene. Petition is to make them use recyclable packaging only.
