Summary of provisions: Each State Party to this Convention undertakes to not engage in military or any other hostile use of environmental modification techniques having widespread, long lasting or severe effects as the means of destruction, damage or injury to any other State Party (art. I.1). The term environmental modification techniques is defined in Article II. The Convention does not hinder the use of environmental modification techniques for peaceful purposes, and State Parties undertake to facilitate, and have the right to participate, in the exchange of information on the use of these techniques for peaceful purposes (art. III). Each Party agrees to take any measures it considers necessary to prohibit or prevent any activity in violation of the Convention anywhere under its jurisdiction or control (art. IV). The Parties undertake to consult one another and to cooperate in solving any problems which may arise in the provisions of the Convention (art. V.1). For this purpose, the Depositary is to convene a Consultative Committee of Experts (art. V.2 and annex). Institutional mechanisms: Any Party which has reason to believe that any other State Party is acting in breach of its obligations may lodge a complaint with the Security Council of the United Nations (art. V.3-5). Five years after the entry into force of the Convention, a conference of the State Parties is to be convened to review the operation of the Convention. Thereafter, a majority of the State Parties may obtain the convening of a conference with the same objectives (art. VIII).
