Abstract The objective of this paper is threefold. First, to make clear how significant and severe the continued deposition of orbital debris into the near Earth environment is to the future use of space for all mankind. Second, to provide some clear guidelines as to how the international community might wish to proceed in order to combat this growing space environmental hazard. Third, to extend discussion of the debris issue by other international groups to exercise the techniques and dialogue necessary to begin to formulate international agreements on this topic. Several actions are recommended for immediate application in a first phase.
