Shut down Mclaren Circus, South Africa
Mclaren circus uses animals such as lions, snakes, tigers, camels and many more. These animals should not be used as entertainment and these animals deserve to have a better life and be free from that horrible business. The animals deserve to be respected and to be free to live in the wild instead of cages for peoples entertainment. THIS NEEDS TO STOP.

Reinstate Elvis' name on the "USS Arizona"
The goal of this petition is to reinstate Elvis' name on the "USS Arizona Memorial" in Pearl Harbour - Hawaii... Elvis' name was removed from the memorial because of his alleged abuse of prescibed medication! This removal is an insult to the memory and legacy of Elvis Presley! Elvis helped to raise the funds to finish the construction of the memorial by doing a benefit concert in 1961. Elvis should be aknowledged and his name should be reinstated!!!!!

Bring Kmart to Ashburton
This town is growing everyday. Prices are rising all the time. We need something in this town that prices are low and affordable for everyone's living situation and that's Kmart. That is the one thing we need in this town. To many people are wasting money on petrol just to go to christchurch to go to Kmart. It would be alot easier on everyone if we had one in this town.

Petition to Ban Single-use Plastic Straws at McDonald’s
"Plastic straws and other single-use plastics are a non-essential part of our life. Yet, they cause so much damage to the environment," Get Green Now states. "The degrading of plastic could release chemicals that are toxic to wildlife and the environment." Plastic straws are polluting the environment and is having a very negative effect on marine life. Turtles have been found with plastic straws stuck in their nose. In a country of 4 million people, New Zealanders use 540 million plastic straws
