Encourage world industries to reduce pollution

Additional Information

We would like the Government to discourage UK and EU firms from trading with firms causing dangerous pollution.

For example, Ukraine Environmental Minister, Victor Boyko, (in 2010)

"The Ministry of Environment supports public concern in the city Zaporozhye about industrial air pollution .. which account for approximately 90% of emissions from the total for the whole city.

Ref: http://en.ura-inform.com/economics/2010/04/29/minprirody?nocache

Two months later, Victor Boyko lost his job.

The same publication reports:
"The study of ambient air in Zaporozhye showed a significant excess of the concentration of chemicals in the central part of town "

Many UK and EU firms trade with these companies, for example Midland Group (UK) and Carbofer (EU) trade with steel makers Zaporizhstal
