What the petition asks
As we all now are required to wear face coverings in all public places, there is a big concern about our environment. As people are wearing face coverings, they breath, cough in those masks leaving them full of bacterias, viruses, and other nasty germs,and then just throw them on the ground.
It's need to be taken a wery seriously and need to solve the problem! Becouse all those masks contains viruses, germs, and other probably nasty deseases, all of that goes to our nature!! We must not only think about ourself, we must think about what kind of place our children will grow up. So I beg for people just a bit stop on one second and just think, what we are doing, what example we show to our children. Thank you!
