Description:
Ban Single-Hulled Tankers!
Leaky single-hulled tanker ships can cause enormous environmental damage and cost millions of dollars to clean up. Millions of barrels of crude oil are lost to the oil-hungry nations of the world. We must unite to ban single-hulled tankers and endorse the use of double-hulled tankers. This would prevent environmental disasters like the one caused by the damaged tanker off the coast of Spain in 2002 and help lower the cost of fuel as more would be reliably available to every nation. It would also be a boon to fishing, tourism, and shipbuilding industries.

Gameplay Impacts
This resolution was adopted prior to the current NationStates United Nations rule sets. Even though the resolution makes a real world reference to Spain, for effect of the Ban Single-Hulled Tankers! is to effectively discourage the use of single-hulled tankers by United Nations members. For the purposes of gameplay, it can be assumed that Spain is a fictious example used within the resolution.
