[Draft] Repeal GA349: To Prevent Dangerous Debris

[Radicalania]

Depending on how the latest draft is taken on the "replacement" (currently looking more like strengthening) , this may be abandoned soon (which is a shame cos I do think that the legislation is not good for several reasons listed above)

The General Assembly

Aware that the problem of space debris as is of great importance to spacefaring nations;

Applauding the attempt of GA349 to reduce the amount of space debris presenting an immediate hazard;

Observing debris as being mockingly defined as debris, which is an unsuitable definition; Non-issue. Humor is fine, which is exactly what it is, and debris is self-explanatory enough

Noting this act fails to properly address debris which is not in orbit of a celestial body, and actively encourages nations to make this worse; How?

Believing that by allowing vessels to fire debris into space as long as it is not in orbit will cause further issues, should that debris collide with another planet or ship; Issues such as what? If any inter-terrestrial captain who has received their credentials cannot avoid basic debris, perhaps they should not have credentials at all.

Concerned that this act does not prevent space debris at all, and in fact allows for creation of vessels which contribute to a junk orbit; Note that the resolution is not seeking to end space debris - it's seeking to limit space debris from contributing to dangerous conditions. If you wish to prevent space debris itself, write a supplementary resolution. It doesn't require repeal of this.

Alarmed that by allowing vessels to land in "unclaimed undeveloped territory, or the territory of nations that consent to the collision or landing", that they are putting lives at risk; This is a non-sequitur. I seriously don't understand what you're getting at, here.

Disgusted that nations entering space are not encouraged to clean up after themselves, but are enabled by this resolution to contribute to the growing problem of space debris; I have no idea how you drew this conclusion from the resolution.

Knowing that World Assembly Nations can and should do more to rid planets of this problem;

Hereby repeals GA349.

"Firmly against. I believe that there is room for repeal of 349, but I do not think the arguments made here are convincing or even sensical at all."
