What the petition asks
Ban all bonfires in built up areas, or within 5 miles of a built up area please.
It's very anti social & not healthy affecting people's health ruining the fresh air. It's also potentially dangerous if the fires get out of hand. In this modern age rubbish doesn't have to be burnt in people's gardens & it definitely isn't environmentally friendly to people's health or the planet.
