Introduce plastic bottle vending machines to supermarkets in the UK

Petition Details

The amount of plastic bottles being thrown out every day is unbelievable! Approximately 13 billion plastic bottles are thrown each year in the UK. Most of them end up in the oceans and kill sea life. We are urging the government to introduce bottle vending machines in all UK supermarkets.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can't accept your petition because the UK Parliament and Government are not responsible for the issue you raise.

You could start a new petition about something the UK Parliament or Government are responsible for. For example, you could start a new petition asking the UK Government and Parliament to require supermarkets to provide plastic bottle recycling vending machines, if that's what you'd like to happen.
