Rejected 15 signatures

What the petition asks

Due to the current environmental issues facing our planet we believe it should be mandatory for all schools in the U.K. to show David Attenboroughs a life on our planet documentary film. This is so education and knowledge of this crucial issue is available and accessible for the younger generation.

It is the worlds greatest problem and only we have the means to solve it. Global warming and other environmental problems will be the problems of future generations, we believe it is essential for the younger generation to be aware of what is happening to the natural world and what they can do to change it. Therefore we want David Attenboroughs film to be readily available for children in all schools, as it presents a clear message of what we have done to the world and what we can do to save it.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

The educational materials used to teach school students is a matter for individual schools, not the Government or House of Commons.
