Historical Resolution #137
Repeal: “Save the forests of the World”
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.
Historical Resolution #48 “Save the forests of the World” (Category: Environmental; Industry Affected: Logging) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
The General Assembly of the United Nations,
COMMENDING the assumed intentions of Resolution #48, Save the forests of the World;
DEEPLY COMMITTED to guaranteeing the sustainability of the world ecosystem, namely by the preservation of forests; yet
REGRETTING the confusing, discursive and unconstructive nature of said Resolution;
NOTING that it does not mandate or recommend any course of action to further the cause of sustainability, rendering it ineffective;
ACKNOWLEDGING the clear overlap between the assumed intentions of its author and the mandate of Resolution #23, Replanting Trees; and
DECLARING that ambiguous and ineffective legislation threatens the credibility of the UN, especially when in duplication of previous legislation;
REPEALS Resolution #48.
