Ban all single use plastic

Closed 2,154 signatures

What the petition asks

I want there to be a ban on all single use plastic e.g. plastic packaging for fruit and veg, plastic bottles, plastic on cans of alcohol, plastic bags in supermarkets because half of these things end up in land fill sights, oceans and on land in places where animals inhabit.

I’m very passionate about the environment and I want serious change to be made to the way in which things are packaged as their are many animals that are being killed and fooled by plastic in oceans and on land. Plastic is ridiculously bad for the environment and needs to be banned urgently. We need change in this country in the way in which things are packaged and there are so many alternatives to single use plastic.
