Repeal "MANDATORY RECYCLING"

A proposal to repeal a previously passed resolution


Category: Repeal

Resolution: #13

Proposed by: Herconia

Description: UN Resolution #13: MANDATORY RECYCLING (Category: Environmental; Industry Affected: All Businesses) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: OBSERVING the need for practical recycling legislation,

APPALLED by the failures of "Mandatory Recycling" to deliver suitable solutions, and its restriction on the ability of the UN to adopt more workable recycling policies,

REGRETTING the lack of clear guidelines, measurable goals and regulations in aforementioned resolution,

AWARE that not all member states have the industrial capacity for the scale of recycling mandated by this resolution, for which no allowance is made,

CONCERNED by the irresponsibility of forcing member states without the requisite facilities to engage in this level of recycling,

NOTING the distinct possibility of environmental damage caused by inappropriate recycling of materials by member states without developed, safe industrial facilities,

CONSIDERING that recycling "all paper, glass, aluminum, and batteries", regardless of needs, value, other uses of these items, etc, as this resolution mandates, is not a safe, intelligent, or effective way to issue a resolution encouraging recycling,

REMAINING OPEN to a replacement which adopts a more effective set of recycling regimes

I've just remembered that the voting on this res is due to end tomrrow, but I won't be available tomorrow what with it being Eid and all. Therefore, with a 3-0-2 majority, the Bettian delegate has voted IN FAVOUR of this resolution.

Ahh, you're much more tolerant of my semi-comedic atheist ramblings than our sikh friend, Ahh, a good laugh.. But then again you do work with the UN, you're used to stupidty every day in every resolution, so how much worse than that could I be? biggrin.gif

Yeah, don't bite me with a badger, I'll get tuberculosis.
