Overview
TG Campaign
The resolution proposal was submitted on the morning of Tuesday 3rd January 2006. That day Safalra telgrammed the delgates of the 240 largest regions (excluding those who stated in their World Factbook Entry or national motto that they did not want telegrammes).
By the morning of Wednesday 4th January 2006 the proposal had received 39 approvals. That day Safalra telegrammed the delegates of the next 103 largest regions (all regions containing at least 30 nations). That evening, Safalra started telegramming some of the 202 delegates that had supported Repeal "Mandatory Recycling".
By the morning of Thursday 5th January 2006 the proposal had received 69 approvals. That day Safalra telegrammed the remaining supporters of Repeal "Mandatory Recycling". With the resolution still lacking support, that evening Safalra telegrammed another 200 delegates who's last activity time suggested they would be active before voting time expired.
By the morning of Friday 6th January 2006 the proposal had received 103 approvals. After a tense wait, the proposal final reached quorum of 125 with approval by Pulcifer, delegate of CRNFT, at 9:30pm GMT.

|---|
Description: UN Resolution #35: Stop dumping - Start Cleaning (Category: Environmental; Industry Affected: All Businesses) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
Argument:
The General Assembly,
Noting the passage of United Nations Resolution #35, 'Stop Dumping - Start Cleaning',
Unconvinced that local charities are the most effective organisations for rectifying large-scale environmental damage,
Regretting that the resolution fails to consider that uncontaminated waste water, a byproduct of many industrial processes, when cooled and aerated is no longer harmful to aquatic ecosystems,
Noting that 'filtering' refers only to the removal of particulate matter and will not remove most chemical contaminants,
Observing that the concept of a 'federal prison' is alien to member States without federated government,
Concerned that the specified legal sentences are insufficiently flexible and prevent State judiciaries from considering extenuating circumstances such as time spent in custody,
Affirming that the basis of a United Nations resolution should be a considered analysis of the situation and not emotive rhetoric,
1. Repeals United Nations Resolution #35, 'Stop Dumping - Start Cleaning';
2. Condemns the style of argument, false assumptions and ill-defined terms of the resolution;
3. Urges delegates to consider the differing structures of legislatures in member States when proposing future resolutions.
