I would like to draw your attention to my new proposal. It is entitled 'Diminishing Rainforests'.
I think many of you will agree.

Diminishing Rainforests

A resolution to increase the quality of the world's environment, at the expense of industry.
*
Category: Environmental
Industry Affected: Woodchipping
Proposed by: Kevin Phillips Bong


Description: I propose that we cut down on how much wood we use. The first way we could do this is through using less paper.
Millions of pieces of paper are used everyday and at least half of these are wasted.
We already have proposals to replant at least one tree for every one that is felled, and this will provide well for the future. But for the here and now, we need to do something to help our environment.


Approvals: 1 (Amaranth The First)

Status: Lacking Support (requires 131 more approvals)

Goverment Departments are the worst culprits for paper wastage.

This could use some sprucing up.
"We should cut down"- but how? What mecahnisms. tracking, penalty, enforcement? Who pays and how?
"We should do something"- same point.

That should be it's own thread and you should not have posted that in here.
