1. Wraith Kite: what lens?
2. Solar Mantis: seems like a good start but how's this going to get enforced in places that don't exactly take kindly to international pressure?
3. Crimson Shard: this is a good start but it feels like we've been talking about this for ages - what's the hold up on implementing actual change?
4. Karimfelix: You'd think this would be a no-brainer by now, but I guess there's still too much resistance
5. Cleo: Finally some real action being taken on this - we've been talking about it for ages. The stats are still mind-boggling though
6. Noelvasquez: unfortunately it takes a resolution to get anyone's attention on this issue
7. Freya: This is long overdue - can we focus on implementation instead?
8. Kai: it's astonishing that something so basic is still an issue everywhere
9. Iris: still feeling like a lot of this gets swept under the rug overseas, hope it's more than just another resolution
10. Quiet Shard: feels like we're having this conversation 10 years too late, what's changed from the last big push on this?
11. Novakamir: that number is still unbelievable. need concrete steps on how they plan to enforce this in actual countries
