Ban the sale of wood burners in the UK

Petition Details

Air pollution in the UK is linked to 40,000 deaths.

Indoor air pollution has increased, though domestic combustion.

Banning the sale of wood burners protects the health and safety of citizens and neighbourhoods.

Additional Information

Small particles (PM2.5) coming from wood burners enter the human body and are a health hazard.

There has already been regulation against the sale of 'wet wood' and coal.

New regulations are due in Jan 2022 for 'Eco designs' that still emit dangerous amounts of pollution.

Let's go one further.

Let's ban the sale of these household hazards.
