This planet is doomed!

I propose a new resolution.
Resolution 775: The Noah's Ark project!

No matter how many resources we pour into trying to save the planet from global warming, its not going to work. The planet is going through a cycle of heating and cooling. This cycle has been proven by science. We can not escape it. The trouble is that we have made it worse by abusing the natural resources and converting them into unwanted gas. Now we have accelerated the process of warming. We have approximately 2 generations left before humans will not be able to live on the planet surface due to excess heating. The only solution is to invest in the science of "Terra Forming". This will enable us to kick start the atmosphere on neighbouring Mars and transport additional water to sustain life.

I propose that resolution 775, makes it compulsory for all nations to contribute to this program by channeling existing funds out of military budgets and into the Noah's Ark Project. All nation will serve a function in the contribution to the development of the project. In return for the contribution, all nations will be assured a claim in the colonization of Mars, allocation of land and part ownership of the base stations on the Moons.

Ship: Eluneyasa Exploratory Probe
Location: In orbit around some annoying blue planet with a moon and a lot of trash. I mean, seriously, have you guys seen the junk up here? Just this morning, I was interrupted from taking a shower because I had to spend a half hour playing dodgeball with a bunch of strange devices with large dishes and mirrored wings. It almost looks like one of you shot a city up here as an experiment.

Anyway, terraforming... I'm assuming 'Mars' is this red piece of trash behind me. I mean, I'm hoping you're not thinking of the other direction. Yeah, it looks nice and all, but it's a wee bit too warm for my comfort level, and I'm smarter than you are.

Anyway, wouldn't it take you a couple thousand years to terraform this 'Mars' of your's? And wouldn't it also take more money than the combined budgets of the entire assembly? Finally, how are you going to divide a planet that's smaller than your's around ten thousand ways and have anyone benefit from it? Especially given you'd probably flood 80% of it with water, if I read your plan right?

Anyway, I'm done now. Just adding this planet to our starcharts. We're launching an exploration mission soon... maybe we'll have some of the ships drop by afterwards and see how it's going with your terraforming.

I am questioning whether you have the right to these bases on Mars's moon. Deimos is included in the region of the space sector of ASPSH, and has already been 1/3 terraformed by "us." ("us" means me, Black Wasteland, Friedfroglegtopia, Madagascarland, and all the other nations of the region.)

If you are attempting to put bases on space places, keep in mind you might not be the first one there.

OOC: I am dismissing this as pure propaganda and just a scare campaign as another attempt in disarming the millitary and placing more restrictions on weapons including another attempt in repealing the Nuclear Proliferation Act. It should also be considered as godmoding as writting up ridiculous reports and studieds that there is only two generations left before this planet becomes unfeasible and unhabbitable for living in this planet as we call earth today. For something like this to happen takes millions of years or billions of years before something like this was to occure although it is a true fact that global warming has become an issue on NS earth including in real life, if the trend keeps up, in about millions of years to come, global warming will see itself become real and not a myth, but its not going to happen not for millions or billions of years to come.

What "Nuclear Proliferation Act"? If you're referring to my resolution, it's called the Nuclear Arms Possession Act, now get it right.

IC: My esteemed colleagues I move that we throw the street protesters out on to the streets... due to the fact they they can no longer be refered to as the street protesters while indoors.
You will not throw us out! We have every right to be here!

A large Ursine, wearing trousers and a broad-brimmed hat (whose top rises to a point) onto the front of which a metal badge bearing the initials 'WA HQ FD' has been attached, appears on the scene. He beats fire in the burning shrubbery out with a shovel, shovels the remnants of that mess into a metal bin, and then advances menacingly on the fire-starters.

"Remember, only you can prevent forest fires!" he growls in an angry tone, holding the shovel as if he's about to chop at somebody with it...

If you are going to discuss marine recipes while the whole planet fries under your feet in the noon day sun in 2050 then go right ahead.
As soon as we get this Resolution past then I am outa here.
By the way Mars is further from the sun.....DuH! a bit cooler.
You will not need half the Earth water to set up Mars, just enough to kick start the eco system. The rest is basic science. A base on earth's moon will be needed to sling-shot heavy cargo without fighting Earth's gravity. Cheaper option.....yeah baby!
We just need the cash to get started.....we have the brains!

*Turns to the delgate from Shaganapi*

"Have some fish, you look like you can use a break."

I must admit that I don't have any knowledge of this Mars or Moon you speak of, and please I wouldn't mention the word moon around the delegate from Kenny. You might meet with a unexpected sight.

Oh they're fairly well known (http://www.nationstates.net/region=mars) Regions (http://www.nationstates.net/region=the%20moon). I'm also quite certain that their residents would be opposed to any activities such as those included in this proposal.

Yes of course, but the delegate is referring to them as if they were planets.

Who unlocked this loony's padded cell? I enjoy listenming to the rantings of lunatics as much as anyone, but this is getting old. *sig!* Looks like I better do something. <reaches under desk and presses button> A few minutes later a large troop of Jagermonsters with butterfly nets enter the festering snakepit, and form up in front of the good but unwholsome senator's desk and stand at attention. He answers the salute and says,

"Men, you must perform a vital task for the ambassadors in the festering snakepit. A bunch of lunatics have escaped from the nuthouse. You must capture them. For the sake of the Thessadorian Two, you must not fail. Now go get them."

The Jagermoster commander smiles a toothy smile and answers with a cheerful,
"Ja, mein Capitian!"
then he says to his troops,
"Hokay, yoo heard da boss! Go get dem!"

The troop of Jagermosters quickly swarm on the Shaganapi delegation with much whooping and hollering.

Nigel watches as the Jagermosters pass him on the way to their intended.. breathing a sigh of relief as for a moment he thought he was the one they were coming for.

'Shame' he thought to himself, 'everyone knows that Jagermosters love cornbread.'

Person: Serah Gey, Acting Representative of Eluneyasa
Ship: Eluneyasa Exploratory Probe
Location: Still in orbit. I've been playing checkers against a space station I found up here. I've got them convinced it's some alien form of the game, so they keep losing as I keep making up weirder rules for them to follow.

Anyway, we're pretty sure the whole planet wouldn't fry. That would take a supernova or the like. Though, I've never had barbequed savage before... I may have to stick around, join the group, and wait for it. Mmm, barbeque!

Oh, and while you may know where this planet you call 'Mars' is, I do not. I am not native. All I see is a worthless rock close to your star, a worthless rock with a bad cloud problem further away, a blue planet that's dominated by people who seem to believe they should toss all of their garbage into space and that their planet is going to magically cook them alive at some specific date, a red rock that's barely worth the time it took me to take a picture of it, a debris field, and a bunch of overlarge gas balls.

You tell me, which one do you think mars this system enough that it deserves the name?

Finally, please send me this magical science you have. If you discovered something, and I seriously doubt it, I promise to give your species a mention in the footnotes when I publish it under my own name back home. Assuming, of course, you promise to follow through on the barbeque.
