Review and reform the Litter Strategy for England

Closed 2,146 signatures

What the petition asks

In 2017 the Government published a Litter Strategy for England. We believe this is not working and must be reviewed and reformed to effectively tackle the problem of litter. The new strategy should contain concrete proposals and funding for enforcement, education and community engagement.
Many roadsides, streets, public places and parts of the countryside are in a terrible state with litter. We need an effective policy to clean England up.
