Since the late 1950s, we have launched around 6600 satellites, approximately 1130 of

, our positional Earth utilities have made space debris an increasingly serious problem.

One of the primary concerns is the degradation of celestial bodies in exercise of property
AND
pollution of space environment will need to be addressed on "war footing".
3. Privatization dramatically increases debris because it exponentially increases launches and undermines government regulations.
Gagnon, 2003 - coordinator of the Global Network Against Weapons and Nuclear Power in Space ~Bruce, "Space Privatization: Road to Conflict?", http://www.space4peace.org/articles/road_to_conflict.htm~~
Three major issues come immediately to mind concerning space privatization. Space as an environment
AND
this vision the taxpayers won't see any return on our "collective investment."

The administrative status of global space operators, whether public or private, has no

VI. CONCLUSION Space debris poses a serious threat to the continued use of space
AND
to regulations that make them internalize the costs created by their debris.175

The increasingly crowded space in Earth's low orbit could set the stage for
AND
adversaries. "This is a politically dangerous dilemma," the authors write.

Orbital debris is any human-made and uncontrollable litter left in Earth orbit.
AND
future collisions, even if we put no new spacecraft into Earth orbit.

A fifth factor relates to business economics. Space debris has the potential to damage
AND
resources, and secure market leadership positioning (Hamel and Prahalad, 2005).
