Keep Walpole Litter Free. Sign the Petition (Closed)

The petition is now closed

Michael Filby has picked up hundreds of tons of roadside litter in Walpole and surrounds for 18 years (without receiving a cent from Main Roads.)

I’m 77 years of age, I’ve done the equivalent of 3 circumnavigations of the earth. This cannot go on forever, for either physical or financial reasons.”

The main purpose of the new petition, is to ask the government to consider the hygiene standards of the Highway 1.

We’re not telling them how to do it. We’re saying at a high level, discuss this issue because it has international concern.
