Affects: All industries and governments
Strength: Mild
Description: A proposal to encourage nations to fund renewable energy research.
ARGUMENT:
AWARE that the use of fossil fuels and fossil fuel related products depletes the limited reserves upon planets
UNDERSTANDS that the burning of fossil fuels such as coal to produce electricity releases the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide that contributes to global warming as well as other noxious compounds that can later cause acid rain as well as other environmental issues,
CONCERNED that this rapid depletion would leave no way to produce energy for future generations,
KNOWS that there are other ways to generate electricity without using fossil fuels. These include, but is not limited to, solar, wind, geothermal, and hydro,
HEREBY:
1) Instructs World Assembly nations to devote sufficient funding in order to make a meaningful and good faith effort towards researching renewable energy
2) Encourages nations to enact policies on fossil-fuel burning power plants to commit a minimum 5% from their expenditure to further renewable energy research and to develop ways to better utilize alternative energy sources
3) Urges nations to take into account and implement results from the renewable energy research
IN ORDER to allow future generations to produce electricity without further polluting the atmosphere.
