All this business about parasites and stuff seems awfully nitpicky given your stated much broader goal of establishing pretentiously highfalutin'-sounding wildlife preserves.
There's also the matter of human development: one nation may find itself the unwilling host of such a sanctuary merely because it got screwed economically - so while its neighbors buzzed their territory of the biome to the ground and built cities and industries on top, this nation still has its section of the biome. The very least you could do now to make up for prohibiting this hypothetical nation's development is help it develop a safari/ecotourism industry within the sanctuary. If it's being forced against its will to have the thing, it should be able to make some money off it.

I do have puppets to experience different ends of the political spectrum, but I do not use them to falsify forum votes, as this is pointless and extremely counterproductive, and why have them post when my main nation drafting the legislation can do it?

They aren't unfounded. You know what you're doing, cut it out.

APPLAUDING efforts to preserve biodiversity and protect endangered species by all nations.
CONCERNED that more and more species may become extinct every day, damaging biodiversity across the territory encompassed by or controlled by, World Assembly nations.
DEFINES a Biodiversity Sanctuary as an area protected by the local government from habitat destruction, pollution, or any act that permanently harms the biodiversity of an area in a extensive and detrimental fashion.
CREATES The International Biodiversity Preservation Commission (IBPC).
MANDATES that an Biodiversity Sanctuary be created to protect a habitat when:
1. When a habitat is rare or unique
and its destruction would significantly degrade the biodiversity of the territory encompassed by or controlled by World Assembly nations.
2. When a habitat's destruction would set off a chain reaction through an ecosystem that would negatively impact a habitat designated as a Biodiversity Sanctuary.
3. When a habitat does not necessarily have large amounts of biodiversity
but contains such a large population of a species that its destruction would damage the biodiversity of all of the territory encompassed by or controlled by World Assembly nations.
STATES that it will be the duty of the IBPC to determine when an area must be preserved, to maintain Biodiversity Sanctuaries
and to ensure that they are created when mandated.
MANDATES that all member nations avoid actions that would permanently damage a Biodiversity Sanctuary in a detrimental fashion.
This does not ban all industry and commerce around Biodiversity Sanctuaries, just those which would severely damage the Sanctuary.
MANDATES that member nations include the entire qualifying area in all Biodiversity Sanctuaries when they are created.
STATES that the IBPC will work to keep invasive and non indigenous species out of Biodiversity Sanctuaries so that they cannot damage the biodiversity of the sanctuary.
STATES that the protection afforded by this resolution does not extend to disease causing agents.
STATES that should a disease causing agent enter a Sanctuary, infected organisms may not be killed to stop the disease, but will be quarenteened and treated by the IBPC, and only put down if deemed necessary by a certified IBPC veterinarian.
STATES that no nation, company, individual, or organization may deliberately release a disease causing agent into a Sanctuary, and one that does so accidentally will be subject to heavy fines.
STATES that in the case of parasites that are endangered, a living organism that a parasite resides on cannot be in itself a Sanctuary, though it may reside within one, which allows protection to itself and the parasite, unless the parasite threatens the host organisms life, in which case it is not protected, and the protected host organism will be treated by the IBPC to remove the parasite.
ENCOURAGES local governments to help with this effort.
ENCOURAGES nations to choose to create Biodiversity Sanctuaries that do not meet the above mentioned requirements simply for the sake of preserving biodiversity, even when creating one is not mandated.
Apologies for absences, non-COVID health issues leave me with very little energy at times.Giovenith wrote:And sorry hun, if you were looking for a forum site where nobody argued, you've come to wrong one.
