Ban the sale and use of SKY LANTERNS.
The government should ban the sale and use of sky lanterns. Sky lanterns cause damage to the environment and harm or kill wildlife they also create more litter in towns and the countryside.
The government should do more to protect out wildlife from sky lanterns as once they are set in the sky they have to come down somewhere.
There have been many cases of wildlife getting harmed or killed by sky
lanterns. Sky lanterns also create a litter problem for towns and the countryside. They are also a fire hazard which puts an extra strain on emergency services if a fire occurs.
