Petition Action

Make brown compost bins a requirement

Petition Details

We would like the government to enforce that all households have a brown bin to promote recycling.

Additional Information

We want the government to enforce the use of brown bins in each household. This is due to climate change is a big thing now a day due to how badly we all look after are planet. Using recycling is a renewable source of energy and can improve are environment, it will also stop unnecessary waste going into landfill sites where it rots and releases harmful greenhouse gasses like methane. As the blue and white recycling bins are a legal requirement, these should be as well.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure if you mean a council supplied bin for garden waste, or a home composting bin.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
