General Assembly Resolution #382 “Environmental Warfare Act” (Category: Global Disarmament; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
The General Assembly,
Applauding GA#382’s noble ambitions of prohibiting the abhorrent and harmful practice of environmental warfare;
However, concerned by the resolution’s grossly lacking definition of “environmental warfare," only fixating on the issue of the spread of invasive species;
Horrified by how many forms of ecoterrorism are grossly neglected by the resolution’s narrow definition of “environmental warfare" and its exclusion of other vastly harmful practices of environmental warfare such as:Fearing that the target resolution's single focus excludes far more pressing issues and instances of ecoterrorism which, as a consequence, are not addressed in this resolution;
- Contaminating civilian drinking water;
- Using chemical herbicides;
- Deforestation;
Further distressed that this resolution's misleading title and preamble may lead some members into a false sense of security;
Unsatisfied by clause 3, a mandate whose ambiguity and lack of guidance on how to comply with it would prevent the mandate from being properly enforced and reaching its potential as an active deterrent of the spread of invasive species;
Baffled by GA#382’s decision to task the World Assembly Commission of Biological Agents (WACBA) with the responsibility of identifying and preventing the spread of invasive species despite the fact that WACBA's mission is centered around the use biological agents primarily in
ballistic weapons;
Convinced that GA#382 fails to identify environmental warfare, offer proper guidance and preventative measures against instances of ecoterrorism, allocate the proper authorities to deal with this issue, and provide the assistance necessary to significantly help member nations affected by environmental warfare;
Hereby repeals GA Resolution #382, “Environmental Warfare Act.”
