What the petition asks
•Introduce new legislation that prevents burning non food items in outside burners and bonfires in residential areas.
Burning in residential areas is at an all time high.
It is a nuisance to many communities all over England.
Burning affects health issues including asthma, copd (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) it can even lead to cancer.
It also causes more green house gases damaging our environment.
We live in an area where a lot of people use wood burners.
The smoke gets so bad everyone has to close their windows. what makes it worse is that My father has copd he can't go outside most days.
