Repeal "MANDATORY RECYCLING"
A proposal to repeal a previously passed resolution
Category: Repeal
Resolution: #13
Proposed by: Jusma Kullailie
Description: UN Resolution #13: MANDATORY RECYCLING (Category: Environmental; Industry Affected: All Businesses) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
Argument: ARGUEMENT: Honourable Delegates and Member Nations of the UN, we feel that resolution #13 is flawed insofar as the scope of what it mandates recycling for is too limited. Hence we propose the following to repeal resolution #13 - "MANDATORY RECYCLING".
NOTING: That UN resolution 13 - "MANDATORY RECYCLING" lacks scope in achieving its desired goals in the present and future generations. In a literal sense, its statement calls for recycling of paper, glass, aluminium and batteries ONLY.
This ignores other recyclable products or by-products that exists today and will exist in future, including but not limited to...
>> Tin and other recyclable metals
>> Cardboard boxes and other packing materials
>> Food, beverage and other plastic containers and other recyclable plastic items
>> Inkjet and Toner cartridges, Magnetic Reels, CD ROMs and other computer media
>> Monitors, computers and other electrical equipment
NOTING FURTHER: That due to these shortcomings, corporations have been found to, without breaching resolution 13, completely neglect ethical practice of recycling recyclable items not covered under resolution 13.
RECOGNIZING: "MANDATORY RECYCLING", proposed by Techno prisoners, as a precedent to improve world's environment.
RECOGNIZING FURTHER: The following major environmental problems on hand:
>> The rapid increase in industrial, bio and general waste in many member nations
>> The lack of space and efforts to dispose off the waste and the practice of dumping garbage in poor nations by other nations
>> The Lack of knowledge or efforts to recycle items those are recyclable at a reasonable cost, by some UN member nations
REPEALS: Resolution 13 - "MANDATORY RECYCLING", implemented: Thu May 8 2003, to make way for a resolution that addresses the above concerns.
Approvals: 8 (Pinkpumpkinia, Gunfreak, Love and esterel, Forgottenlands UN, The Unraveling, CTerryland, Aesies, Domocolees)
Status: Lacking Support (requires 124 more approvals)
Voting Ends: Sat Aug 27 2005 |

The Bettian delegate says YES to repealing that resolution.
The present resoution is a waste of space. Generally speaking, a resolution should contain more than one sentence. |

Meh, either way. Its good that its already there - however small - but there could be better resolutions regarding this. |

I'll endorse the repeal in hopes that a better resolution will come from it. |
