Essay / Research Paper Abstract
A 17 page paper discussing the legal and environmental aspects of biological warfare. As our scientific knowledge increased, so did the threat of biological warfare. The use of biological weapons seems to be less of a threat now, for our scientific knowledge has continued to increase to lead us to a place that we can glimpse into areas we can recognize as unknown. A specific and binding UN treaty exists to which 144 nations have signed and agreed, but there remains no legal enforceability. The 1972 Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention remains under continual review. Bibliography lists 20 sources in 28 footnotes (in Bluebook [legal] style).

Because the Court is an arm of the UN, its position on users of agents of biological warfare is identical to that of the UN, which is wholly opposed
to the use of biological weapons for any reason at all or in any capacity. Any time the International Court hears a case
complete with both plaintiff and defendant, both parties have agreed beforehand to allow the Courts decision to be binding upon them. There are cases in which two nations have
agreed - each believing they would win their cases - but it is rare that both nations will continue to uphold that agreement through to the end of the case.
A more common scenario is that a case goes poorly for one and it withdraws its consent before judgment is passed. A nation that would violate UN convention
against biological warfare is unlikely to wait to be pronounced one of the worlds villains. Today the Court is known for its generosity
