Anyone who has ever taken a tube in London at rush hour will know that London's commuters are depressed, angry, anxious and stressed. Not only does this create a negative environment, it makes them a danger to themselves and others. On the first day of 2016, three people had already taken their life underground. In addition to that, there have been various violent encounters, impatient commuters pushing through to get to work. I want to create a calming environment, to change our dark and ominous stations into a pleasant and hopeful place. Many studies have shown that soothing music, such as classical music, resulted in decreased anxiety and depression and an increase in overall relaxation. My petition is to install classical music in tube stations to put this theory to the test. Help put an end to underground suicide by helping start a pleasant, happy and stress-free commute.
