The Issue

I would like to bring attention to the problem of companies dumping their toxic waste into bodies of water and hurting the wildlife (such as fish or other water animals) and polluting the water. Not to mention we eat the fish that are swimming in toxic waste and filth so that might affect us as well. It’s a problem from every aspect. We need to make laws around this problem and let companies know they will be punished if they keep dumping their waste into these bodies of water. I want this petition to get 100 signatures and potentially be seen by a person in a higher up system to eventually make laws around this or fine the companies that do it. Not to mention if we swim in this water it could really hurt us and have a big affect on us. The toxic waste that is going in these bodies of water is filled with unknown materials and substances that could potentially kill us. Every angle of this problem is terrible and there isn’t really a positive. Companies should agree on a specific waste dumping cite far away from any neighborhood or living person to dump in and not hurt anybody. Please sign this petition and raise awareness to this problem us and our wildlife are facing.
