What the petition asks
We are a group of sixth form students who are highly concerned with the use of single-use plastics. This is because it uses fossil fuels, is non- biodegradable and pollutes our oceans resulting in the killing of animals and disruption of food chains.
We are increasingly worried about the future of our planet, with plastic contributing to a huge carbon footprint. We want to eliminate the use of unnecessary plastic in takeaways nationally.
