Hulse 3, (CARL HULSE, Republicans Set to Spell Out Plan for Oil Drilling in Refuge, Sept 22, 2003, (http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9D0CE5DB1E3AF931A1575AC0A9659C8B63)

ANWR Methane release empirically risk extinction and runaway warming


Baltimore Sun 4 ("Methane Burps: Ticking Time Bomb" 15 Dec 2004 by Baltimore Sun John Atcheson, http://energybulletin.net/3647.html)


Overpopulation DA


Foreign aid empirically creates rising expectations of prosperity in Africa that fuels overpopulation

Abernethy, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine, 1993

(http://www.carryingcapacity.org/va2.html) 

Between the end… of an emigration option. 


 

Overpopulation is the key access point to every major impact in Sub-Saharan Africa

Bryjak, Sociology at University of San Diego, 1997

(http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m1272/is_n2626_v125/ai_19622632) 

The 46 nations…6,931 years, respectively. 
 

Ignoring population signals authorizes violence---gives a false appearance of international responsibility that actually causes net suffering

Abernethy, Psychiatry at Vanderbilt University, 1997

(27 Envtl. L. 1097) 

In sum, interventions… will swiftly fall. 

 

China DA


US and China have been avoiding confrontation but it is likely over Africa

Gill 6, Bates, et al, Chair of China studies, Center for Strategic and International Studies, 06 “China’s Expanding  Role in Africa Implications for the United States”, 12/1, Report of the CSIS Delegation to China on China-Africa-U.S. Relations, http://www.csis.org/media/csis/pubs/chinainafrica.pdf

Up to now… that commitment. 
 

Growing Chinese oil dependence sparks fear of US congressional unilateral intervention

Zweig and Bi 5, David, , Director of the Center on China’s Transnational Relations at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, and Bi Jianhai, post-doc at the Center, 05, Foreign Affairs, “China’s Global Hunt for Energy”, September/October, proquest 

Because China's extraordinary… exacerbate them needlessly. 


 

Perception of African energy insecurity erodes public support and CCP legitimacy 

Alden 5, Chris, lectures in International Relations at the London School of Economics and is a Research

Associate with the Department of Political Sciences, University of Pretori 2005, 'China in Africa', Survival, 47:3, 147 – 164 

A��er Tiananmen Square… of economic fortune. 
 

CCP prioritizes it’s sovereignty---it will react to threats to its strength by lashing out and killing billions---killing humyn-kind

Sen 5, Renxing, Staff writer, Epoch Times, 05 The Epoch Times, August 3, 2005, “CCP Gambles Insanely to Avoid Death” http://www.theepochtimes.com/news/5-8-3/30931.html 

In a show… with their lives.

 

WHO CP


Implementing the Counterplan’s key for the WHO to catalyze international health cooperation---boosting credibility 

Taylor 4——(Allyn L., University of Maryland School of Law, Governing the Globalization of Public Health, Published in the Journal of Law, Medicine & Ethics, v. 32, no. 3, Fall 2004, http://digitalcommons.law.umaryland.edu/fac_pubs/58) 

WHO can catalyze… negotiation sessions. 

 

 


 

Reps/Images K


The american relationship to africa is defined by images.  Saturated by representations of conflict, disease, and the permanent afliction of catastrophe and chaos, policymakers can’t help but solidify the dehumanizing frame for intervention these images demand 

Wallace 5, phd student – anthropology – oxford, 5

[jamie, “american perceptions of africa based on media representations”, http://www.hollerafrica.com/showarticle.php?Artid=101&catid=1] 

When we think…… in the world (ebo 1992:17). 


 
 

The attachment to images of african catastrophe castigates africans to a permanent global underclass.  Defined as harbingers of their ever-present demise, africans become the objects of a genocidal process of dehumanization that’s grounded history’s most extreme atrocities.  

Sankore 5, editor – international federation of journalists – africa and coordinator – freedom of expression and associated rights in africa, 5

[rotimi, “the pitfalls and consequences of development 'pornography'”, http://www.bond.org.uk/networker/2005/april05/opinion.htm]

Increasingly graphic depictions… define their future. 
 

Rejecting the affirmatives negative representations disconnects American policymaking from the mechanisms of colonialism. 

Oguibe 3-- Associate Professor African American Studies and Associate Director of the Institute for African American Studies at the University of Connecticut, Storrs; senior fellow of the Vera List Center for Art and Politics at the New School, graduated from the University of Nigeria, received a Ph.D. in Art history from the University of London, taught at several universities in Europe and America where he served in an endowed chair in the Arts of Africa and the African Diaspora—(Olu, “The West and the idea of Africa”, African Societies, Issue 4, March 2003) 

The point, instead… an own discourse.

 

Abortion DA


You have a moral obligation to reject advocacies of Abortion—no matter how noble the intention of their affirmative may be  
 
Lugosi 2004 [Charles I. Respecting Human Life in 21st Century Amerca: A Moral Perspective to Extend Civil Rights to the Unborn From Creation to Natural Death]

The legal distinction… in its immorality. 
 

The abortion right legitimizes all atrocity as it prioritizes economic calculus and material prosperity over the love of another. 



Fox-Genovese 2007 [Dr. Elizabeth Fox-Genovese is Eléonore Raoul Professor of the Humanities at Emory University, Crisis Magazine]

Abortion begets and… hard to imagine
