On behalf of our region nation who is submitting this proposal, the delegate nation Traxtonia calls for full support of the proposed resolution Cold Fusion Technology. We in the U.N. shape the world. Your support for this proposal will help guide your nation and the world in a prosperous direction.


COLD FUSION TECHNOLOGY
A resolution to reduce barriers to free trade and commerce.

Category: Free Trade
Strength: Significant
Proposed by: Bohemia and Moravia II

Description: Whereas, society and the world need reliable energy sources, and the need and demand for such energy is increasing. However, the majority of current energy sources are expensive and produce wastes and pollutants that are toxic to individuals and the environment.
COLD FUSION TECHNOLOGY (CFT) would not only exceed the entire World’s energy demands, but would do so without producing radioactive and toxic wastes if the technology and dynamics of that technology were perfected.
It is likely that with a focused mutual effort of nations, workable and practical CFT could be achieved.
CFT would also provide the following benefits to the people and nations of the world:

1. Have the potential to turn vast amounts of garbage and waste of all kinds into useable fuel for CFT
2. Burn clean and produce no toxic by-products or waste
3. Lead to new propulsion systems for space exploration at a very cheap cost once dynamics for propulsion are developed
4. Be a first-step in the transmutation of matter and energy (leading to such things as teleportation and matter/element transmutation)
5. Provide poorer nations/citizens cheap and affordable power
6. Propel the world into a new and better era
Therefore, be it resolved that:

Member States of the United Nations work out a detailed plan to pool their best scientists, a significant amount of funding, and decide on a central location to coordinate, develop, and create a working CFT system for the benefit of all people and nations, with the following conditions:

1. Initial goal will be to create self-sustaining CFT reactor(s) for the production of electricity. These reactors must be clean-burning (produce no toxic emissions or by-products) and capable of producing more energy than they consume.
2. All information before, during, and following the development of all CFT systems must be shared with ALL UN nations (including any entities or individuals involved) and may be monitored by any UN nation.
3. No nation, corporation, nor individuals will be allowed to monopolize CFT production or information before, during, or after the technology is perfected---competition and cooperation is essential to insure CFT does not become a tool to manipulate or take advantage of other individuals or nations.
4. CFT must be used in accordance to UN mandates, resolutions, and legal requirements already active, including the sharing of potential nuclear technology.

First off, fusion isn't clean burning because it doesn't burn anything. Second of all, cold fusion already exists, but true fusion does not. Many years ago, they had a plant that claimed to be fusion, but had required energy to start. More exactly, they chilled it to get the first reactions going and from then on it was working (hince cold fusion). These plants would be very expensive to build and while they may pay off in the long run, where does the money come from to build? One would also need trained experts to run and maintain these plants.

The resolution's goal is to combine our resourses to solve the problems you mentioned. A reactor need not neccesiarily be built (though scientists/engineers may build a lab-sized one if needed and feasable), but rather the dynamics of the things you mentioned need to be solved. As the resolution states, the goal is to be able to create a reactor that produces more power than it consumes. The reactor at U of U was prematurely declared to be a success, and it consumed more energy than it created, making it useless. No nation or group would be forced to create a reactor, the resolution's goal is to create the ABILITY TO DO SO. I understand these reactors don't "burn" per-se, but I don't want to distract from the issue...the goal is to combine scientific minds---the best from member nations---to overcome this problem and make the technology workable and freely available to all. If and how individual nations wish to use it is up to them. We simply want to get scientific minds together to make it workable, similar to the "Los Alamos" project in WWII, but with a much different objective. Nations are able to participate (or not) to any degree they wish...this includes whether or not they send their scientists to work on the project or send funding. I can add these details if you think they are needed to a future proposal.
