Repeal "Promotion of Solar Panels"
A proposal to repeal a previously passed resolution
Category: Repeal
Resolution: #122
Proposed by: Ficticious Proportions
Description: UN Resolution #122: Promotion of Solar Panels (Category: Environmental; Industry Affected: All Businesses) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
Argument:
Let it primarily be noted that the original creator of this resolution, Starcra II, in his own words, has admitted to his resolution having faults and was previously aware of the repeal. He encourages nations to support this repeal as he is writing up a newer, better version of the resolution which will be up for debate before submission to the UN.
This repeal does not condemn solar panels, and the United Nations acknowledges that this resolution is well intentioned, but:
-A- The mandatory objective to ban fossil fuels use in ten years is unrealistic, due to it entailing:
- Too short a timescale for the phasing out of fossil fuels
- Too great a fiscal expense of environmentally-conscious replacements and the introduction of said replacement s
- Too much consumption of resources and of fossil fuels themselves for the materials and processes required for the manufacture of more environmentally-conscious alternatives
- An unforeseen and accidental hindering of many fossil fuel reliant economic sectors such as the aeronautical and airlines sector.
- An impact on power supplies, thus reducing the productive outputs of industries extracting, processing and modifying further resources to make the products that are taken for granted in maintaining our quality of life. This may involve the processing and packaging of foodstuffs, medicines, water and other supplies used in aid programs and our daily lives.
-B- This resolution's requirements will destroy many economies in next 10 years due to the costs of extracting, obtaining and processing the resources required, as mentioned in Section A, and the costs of the economy recovering to the level it was at before the fossil fuel ban would have to come out of already nearly depleted treasuries.
-C- As some nations receive little sunlight each year and many new/clean/renewable sources of energy are available, the nations must be to allowed to decide between these choices, some of which are more suited to their climates and geography, in order to decrease their use of fossil fuels, whilst maintaining the economic viability and practicality of the replacements.
-D- This resolution falsely states that the combustion of fossil fuels results in holes in the Ozone layer, and while the UN accepts that they theoretically assist the Greenhouse Effect and are aware of its implications, this error must be removed to prevent the misinforming of member states.
The United Nations,
PLEASED by the environmental concerns of the original proposal and its promotion of renewable energy source, but
REGRETTING the aforementioned shortcomings,
REPEALS Resolution #122 - "Promotion of Solar Panels".

Yup.
Seriously, though, weve now had 4 oppurtunities on these forums (never mind on NS, and in its UN forum) - Original Proposal, Resolution, Repeal Propsal and now Repeal Resolution. If one hasn't made up one's mind about it by now, there's very little we can do to make people decide, Man that was so funny! :D. |

The Unified Capitalizt States continue to support this repeal, as it is urgent that UN member states stop attempting to destroy their economies by following this resolution before a new, more reasonable resolution can be implemented. Though we condemn the legalization of fossil fuels in some countries, as it is harmful to everyone’s property, we recognize the need to make the transition more slowly, much as we have done.
We urge the Krytenian representative to reconsider his position—every second this proposal stays in effect causes severe damage to the global economy that will be almost impossible to reverse. |
