UN Resolution
Environmental
Industry Affected: Uranium Mining

Problem: Today's forests and animals, including the national animals of some UN members are on the brink of extinction because of the industrilization of most countries, especially in the mining industry. These animals pose no threat to humans in the quest for making profit but their habitats are being destroyed needlessly when a co-existence between animals and Uranium mining can be found.

ACKNOWLEDGES that every UN member has the right to mine for uranium and other minerals in their countries for a profit.

AFFIRMS that Uranium mining does create jobs and boosts the economy which is benefitcal for the people of most UN members.

REMINDS UN members that Uranium mining however causes health problems for its workers and is a dangerous job for most people, and takes away the beautiful scenery of these nations.

I love this one so much. Specially because it tells me all these nifty things I had no clue about, like that Uranium Mining is profitable, then gives me such precise guidelines about what to do about it.

Obsessive mining? Is this like when you just can't stop mining?

Yup. It's called minomania.
