Alternative Fuels
A resolution to increase the quality of the world's environment, at the expense of industry.
Category: Environmental Industry Affected: Automobile Manufacturing Proposed by: Judaicland
Description: Whereas: Fossil fuels currently in use cause great pollution to our environment. Air pollution kills wildlife, adversely affects all nations’ populations, and is in fact a general nuisance. Despite the virtual elimination of the use of CFCs the ozone layers continues to evaporate due in large part to the continued use of environmentally damaging toxins such as fossil fuels. If the destruction of the ozone layer continues global warming will become an issue even if it isn’t as of now.
Whereas: Fossil fuels are controlled by a select few nations who by chance possess them in large quantities. This fact enables these nations to act upon a unique and potentially disastrous opportunity to wreak havoc on the world’s economy for their own benefit.
Whereas: Fossil fuels are in danger of becoming as extinct as the creatures that left them. Reserves are already becoming depleted and when the supply does run out the world will come to a halt and be thrust back into another stone age complete with utter chaos. In fact history has shown that deposits are finite. For example, until shortly after World War II Romania was one the largest producers of oil in the world and is now virtually dry.
Whereas: Alternative fuels such as hydrogen are clean with virtually no environmental side effects. Alternative fuels can be developed by any nation with the economy to do so and in fact even small nations with small economies can contribute due to the fact that they will only need as much to supply their population. Alternative fuels will also be cheaper and easier to produce so that a strong economy cannot control the entire energy market. The development of alternative fuels would avert the impending disaster and be a stable source of energy for possibly an infinite period of time.
For these reasons it is proposed that this United Nations put into place a resolution requiring automobile manufacturers to spend a minimum of 1% of their profits toward alternative fuel research so that alternative fuels will proved a viable alternative to fossil fuels.
Ok so here's the new topic of the week. Although this proposal is following a string of environmental bills, I actually am in support of this one. I feel that alternative fuel research is a step in the right direction and 1% of profits isn't too bad. In the long run the new feul can benefit the industry by allowing more people to use the vehicle without the premium of fossil fuels, you can still tax the alternative fuel. However, I vote the way 10000 votes so let me know before sunday!
