The General Assembly,

Acknowledging and praising GAR # 483 for its attempt to promote recycling of materials, thereby reducing waste;

Disappointed, however, at the numerous critical flaws in GAR # 483 that render it unable to achieve its commendable goal;

Annoyed at the garbled language littered throughout GAR # 483, rendering clauses incoherent and unable to be enforced even in good faith, such as clause 3's bizarre phrasing 'the usage of through recycling recovered materials';

Concerned that despite defining 'recyclable waste material' in Clause 1 (a), the term is not used in Clause 2 (b), which as a result mandates member nations must implement collection systems to recycle all materials;

Further concerned that mandating as such is incredibly unfeasible and costly, as it could mean mandating the collection and possible recycling of goods that are:
  1. a negligible environmental hazard;
  2. extremely difficult or expensive to salvage or recycle; or
  3. of incredibly low use in a member nation's economy;

Irritated by the resolution's apparent insistence on domestic handling of all materials, without any allowance made for possible trade or transshipment of recyclable waste products to reduce costs among all member states;

Saddened by the resolution's lack of insistence on full upgrade and update measures for nations claiming to have recycling programs already in place, allowing pre-existing substantive recycling programs to pass without penalty; and

Hoping that by repealing this legislation, a more effective resolution to promote good recycling practices can be passed;

Hereby repeals General Assembly Resolution 483, "Promotion Of Recycling."

Co-authored by Sierra Lyricalia.

I'm aware that the target was written by a TNPer, so I'll like to know what the people here think of this repeal.
