82. Amendment To The 1961 United Nations Single Convention On Narcotic Drugs Petitio Petition encouraging the united nations to amend the 1961 united nations Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs to include controls on worldwide growing of industrial hemp in respect to Article 28, section 2. http://www.petitiononline.com/hconspir/petition.html

Amendment to the 1961 United Nations Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs View Current Signatures Sign the Petition To: United Nations High Commissioner and General Assembly Eligible Signatories: This can, and should, be signed by everyone. The United Nations belongs to us all. We, the undersigned, considering that the 1961 United Nations Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs (herein referred to as the ‘convention’) states (Article 28, section 2) that it ‘shall not apply to the cultivation of the cannabis plant exclusively for industrial purposes (fibre and seed) or horticultural purposes’, thereby petition the United Nations to include controls, in consultation with representatives of the Hemp Industries Association, that will prevent nation states breaking this important international law, thereby preventing the cultivation and processing of the taxonomic genus Cannabis, which is an important, environmentally sustainable, industrial source of raw cellulose. We, the undersigned, believe that such a control should effectively prevent the illegal incarceration of, for example, Canadian hemp farmers in Nicaragua, on the advice of the United States Drug Enforcement Administration, for cultivating verifiable, government approved, fibre and seed industrial Cannabis with a THC (‘narcotic’) content of, for example, 1.6 percent when introducing a northern hemisphere ‘hemp’ variety into a tropical climate to produce fibre and seed. We, the undersigned, therefore consider it appropriate that international legislation reflects the last 80 years research findings in this area.

Human and Ecological Consequences of the Gulf War's Environmental Damages in Kuwait United Nations Compensation Commission Geneva, January 25, 2000 by Bertrand Charrier Green Cross International Seven years after the Gulf War, it was time to reassess the environmental situation of Kuwait, its patterns of recovery and examine the long-term effects that remain. The environmental assessment produced by Green Cross includes two parts. The first is a study led by a group of scientists/environmental experts and the second is a 26 minutes film-documentary. SUMMARY The environmental damage resulting from the invasion and the subsequent war has affected all ecosystems, as well as human health. Thousands of people still suffer deep psychological disorders - including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder which prevents people from returning to a normal life. The oil contamination of the terrestrial ecosystems reached levels on a scale unprecedented in the history of the planet. The impacts on the environment will take decades to partially disappear and their full effects may never be known. Experts from Green Cross discovered that one fresh groundwater aquifer, representing 40% of the fresh water reserves of Kuwait, is heavily contaminated, and the remaining strategic freshwater reserves provide Kuwait with less than a two-month supply for the entire population!
