Ban the production of pumpkins for Halloween decorations
Nearly 18,000 tonnes of food waste each year are from pumpkin waste (see World Economic Forum website). Use of pumpkins for Halloween celebrations constitute food wastage and poses problem for the planet and the climate thereby, there is urgent need to stop it's use as to protect the climate.
The earth we live in is already overstretched by population increases, industrialisation and commercial farming, hence the need to protect the climate and the earth from these exploitations.
This petition is to advocate for the climate and to draw attention to the danger posed by the commercial farming of pumpkin and the subsequent wastage of same for Halloween celebrations.
The effect of climate change is telling on our world and all hands must be on deck to protect it.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
