Petition Action

Invest in more UK recycling plants and stop exporting British recycling abroad

Petition Details

Create a plan to ensure Britain recycles it's own recyclable waste by gradually stopping the export of British waste (especially to Turkey where a lot of it is dumped on the streets & burned), create more UK recycling plants & monitor this process to ensure it's done responsibly.

Additional Information

Doing so will reduce the environmental damage Britain is responsible for abroad, create more jobs in Britain, thus boosting the economy and establish greater transparency regarding how the recycling process is carried out.
