GA "Protecting Native Prairies And Grasslands" Voting Overview

Overview

Proposal:
This proposal aims to protect tall grass prairies in WA member nations, by tasking the World Assembly Science Program (WASP) with collecting data and research from the endangered prairies, as well as mandating that member nations maintain the current prairies.

Opinions:

For:

The world wildlife fund wrote:I personally feel that this WA legislation is very important for the reasons of it increasing environmental standards to a larger level. It is crucial that we come together as a region to vote for this bill. Forest is a region based off of environmentalism, and this bill is just that. If we truly want to represent what Forest stands for, we need to get this bill passed, as it helps protect vulnerable ecosystems that risk damage if action is not taken. This is that action.

Against:

Uan aa Boa wrote:Like my fellow Forestian Daarwyrth I'll be opposing this one. We already have GA#465 Preventing Species Extinction which charges member nations with implementing conservation plans for threatened species. It's difficult to see how this proposal meaningfully extends beyond that.

The great virtue of GA#465 is its flexibility. It calls for plans to be drawn up for endangered species that take account of their particular circumstances, without asserting that certain local circumstances must be repeated across the world. It doesn't overstate the risk to a particular type of habitat if it is, in fact, widespread but it does already mandate action to protect a unique habitat that only exists in 1 or 2 neighbouring nations.

You wouldn't address the threat to native Madagascan forest by defining that habitat in a way that removes the real world reference and then writing an international law asserting that it is in fact present in many nations, but that's precisely what this proposal does.

Wallenburg wrote:"Seeing as this bans the construction, maintenance, modification, and renovation of roads and railways, emergency service infrastructure, farmhouses, agricultural infrastructure, and existing city centers wherever tall, temperate grasslands exist, Wallenburg is firmly against this proposal. We will not have anything to do with countless people being left to rot in decaying buildings and endangering themselves around unserviced, obsolete infrastructure."
