Ban the use of plastic gloves at petrol stations

Petition Details

Plastic gloves, used in petrol stations, end up in bushes, trees, fields. They can reach rivers, lakes and oceans. Banning their use at petrol stations should help reduce harm to the environment.

Additional Information

These plastic gloves are strewn over our green belt and protected nature reserve areas. They can be extremely dangerous to plants, animals and insects & end up in water ways and ultimately breakdown and can enter the human food chain. These plastics can be incredibly hard to collect as they blow around.
