You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We understand that you are concerned about the environmental harm caused by the disposal of plastics, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. Your petition requests labelling stating the time it takes plastic containers to break down, but also refers to including details of the damage plastic containers do to the environment, so it's not clear exactly what you want these labels to detail.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
We have published the following petitions, which you might like to sign:

Include the harmful environmental impact of plastic waste on the curriculum: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/573514
