Today,1st March 2008, High Tax Hartlepool are challenging both Hartlepool Borough Council and Local Supermarkets to put the town at the forefront of the movement to remove the ubiquitous plastic bag from our local environment by asking them to work together along with other retail stores to achieve a complete ban on the use of plastic carrier bags within the boundary of Hartlepool by the end of 2010.
By signing this petition, you are adding your support to our campaign for which we are very grateful.

I 100% agree with a total ban on plastic bags, if people have to pay for material bags they might think twice about throwing them away therefore having a hugely positive impact on the appearance of our town and the environment.

It is nice to see a positive and useful campaign from hth and one which I fully supoprt. I am already looking at ways in which we can work with the supermarkets to make them much more "environmentally friendly"

There are alternatives, plastic bags are unsightly blowing around streets and fields and are a menace to wildlife

Bags made of recycled paper should be available for purchase so that they can be used as rubbish bin liners.

Either ban the bag or make them biodegradable and in addition the Supermarkets should reduce excess packaging.
