Cut down on plastic

We the residents of Tower Hamlets are extremely concerned in the breakdown in waste collection for a number of weeks over the festive period. Waste built up to a level which became a health and safety issue. We demand that the council pursues an inquiry with its waste contractors Veolia to explore and make clear to residents what transpired and pursue contractual penalties to ensure value for money from Veolia Waste Management services for the lack of appropriate service.

‘Tradition’ could be upheld, and hunting dogs kept within the law, yet foxes, domestic pets and others could all be legally safeguarded. If you’re hunting a scent trail, legally, muzzling makes no difference. Why not?

Although there are some brands who make plastic-free bags, Tetleys tea bags - Britain’s biggest tea bag manufacturer - contain 25% plastic. That level of plastic is considered the industry norm. (https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/ditch-teabags-and-help-save-the-planet-swfjjqzpd) An estimated 2,500 tonnes of plastic enters British urban ecosystems each year due to the plastic hidden in tea-bags. As highlighted in David Attenborough's Blue Planet, plastic pollution is eaten by fish and other wild animals, damaging their digestive systems and entering the food chain in large quantities. All through plastic hidden in the tea bags we’re using for our cuppas."

There is far too much plastic thrown away and supermarkets need to take steps to remove single use plastic packaging from their stores.

In the last 2 years over 200 hundred mature and semi mature trees have been cut down and mashed by East Herts District Council, additionally hedges and undergrowth have been removed even during bird breading season and prior to hibernation times. Today I have discovered that yet more extensive sections of habitat and trees are being removed and the reason given by the contractor is to prevent drug dealing/taking activities under the cover which this habitat provides. The habitat is home to all forms of local wildlife including flocking birds, bats, insects and small mammals. In addition to habitat for wildlife the trees and shrub lines provide privacy for homes and shelter pedestrians from rain and wind in the colder months while providing shade in the summer and generally make this area a more pleasant place to live. To lose habitat because we are ineffective in the fight against drugs is unacceptable. There must be another solution to this issue that does not mean destroying the environment or the aesthetic value it provides. Please sign this petition to help us make EHDC understand that we value our trees and hedges and want to keep this habitat safe from needless destruction.

Plastic is the great polluter of our age and there is no excuse to use items of plastic that are unnecessary or available in an environmentally friendly material

We want to: - Reduce the dominance of motor cars on residential streets. - Prevent rat running and 'through traffic' on residential streets. - Create safe and quiet residential streets where children can play or walk and cycle to school. - Give people living in Birmingham real alternatives to the car. People need safe and convenient alternatives to the private motor car. In Birmingham we have an obesity crisis as well as many people who cannot afford or struggle to afford runnning a car. Pollution is also a major issue in our cities and the government will be fined if they do not start tackling this head on!!

It is important to the community as there are alot of families with children (myself included) that are affected by this. Residents of hillingdon should be treated equally and given the same rights as everyone else !!!!! Please consider making parking easier for residents that live above the pavillions allowing parking permits so that we have the same rights as everyone else 🚘🚗🚘

A Wiltshire wide concessionary fares scheme should be considered by Wiltshire Council. Many of these young people are in full time education and have no access to there own transport. And in many cases if there is public transport the price is beyond there reach.
