By all means, include it in the Geneva convention, but why not ban all wars? If any country attacks another they must know that the whole world will invade them and remove the government, no debate. What you need is countries to sign up to certain good governance ideals, and as long as they follow these they are assured that they will be defended if another country attacks them. The arms race is not sustainable. Countries are buying their clout. The biggest gorilla dictates and bullies other countries into co-operating. Lets stop this madness that has carried on for thousands of years and start focusing on preserving the environment and improving people's lives. Imagine, all that money currently wasted on weapons could be put to many good uses.

The problem is that countries think they own the air above their land. They don't own the air (air moves around), and they don't even own their own land (they are simply caretakers, tourists). How can an elephant pretend to own a waterhole? It does not belong to that individual elephant and neither to the herd of elephant. So how to hold countries accountable for the part of the earth that they are currently living on? Let the UN tax each country based on its pollution. The net taxes raised should be zero, i.e. the heavy polluters would effectively be paying taxes, and the countries who are polluting less than average would earn revenue. Effectively the heavy polluters would be paying to use up clean air. When the system is in place and net pollution needs to be brought down to levels in year x, then it is simply done by raising the overall net tax generated by the system, and using this revenue to research future clean technologies. Politicians do not have to decide to raise taxes, it is automatically adjusted each year to get back to the pollution levels in year x. This is clearly the only equitable solution, but who will enforce it? The UN. The UN should become a super government that can impose such taxes. Currently we are living in a village and villagers are allowed to throw trash in public areas. Legally it is encroaching on the rights of others in the village. It obviously does not work, which is why the natural evolution of any village in order to survive has been to appoint a chief. It is the only way.
