Repeal "Save the forests of the World"
A proposal to repeal a previously passed resolution
Category: Repeal
Resolution: #48
Proposed by: Fonzoland
Description: UN Resolution #48: Save the forests of the World (Category: Environmental; Industry Affected: Woodchipping) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
Argument: The General Assembly of the United Nations,
COMMENDING the assumed intentions of Resolution #48, “Save the forests of the World”;
DEEPLY COMMITTED to guaranteeing the sustainability of the world ecosystem, namely by the preservation of forests; yet
REGRETTING the confusing, discursive and unconstructive nature of said Resolution;
NOTING that it does not mandate or recommend any course of action to further the cause of sustainability, rendering it ineffective;
ACKNOWLEDGING the clear overlap between the assumed intentions of its author and the mandate of Resolution #23, “Replanting Trees”; and
DECLARING that ambiguous and ineffective legislation threatens the credibility of the UN, especially when in duplication of previous legislation;
REPEALS Resolution #48.
Votes For: 3,499
Votes Against: 2,245
[Delegate Votes]

Blimey, Fonzoland's right. That is one poorly written resolution - it's mostly a very emotive appeal with little in the way of thought or legislative substance. Repeal away! |

I agree. Seems to be, after glancing at it a little, just a suggestion of what to do, with little in the way of wording how to protect forests other than singling out a single industry. I suppose you could say the heart is in the right place, but they needed to word it more eloquently. I say FOR. |
