Peace Conversion: Petition for a United Nations Peace Conversion Conference

Whereas, warfare is obsolete, and is destroying the human environment,
slaughtering innocent people, exhausting the world economy, and generating
tens of millions of desperate refugees; and

Whereas, a worldwide military-industrial complex generates endless warfare;

And Whereas, Peace Conversion of human economy and culture is essential for
human survival;

Therefore, Be It Resolved that Veterans for Peace endorses this Petition for
a United Nations Peace Conversion Conference, encouraging everyone to sign
and circulate this petition, and deliver it to leaders of the United Nations
and all nations :

  Petition for a United Nations Peace Conversion Conference 

We, the undersigned, ask the United Nations and all nations to organize a
United Nations Peace Conversion Conference, to make practical plans to move
away from warfare and military confrontation in international affairs, and
phase out military industries, with an orderly transition to peaceful and
sustainable production to meet the growing demands of climate change, and to
meet basic human needs worldwide.
