... and other sad tales

Once upon a time, there was a lovely village

With a lovely commons where the sheep grazed...

Happily... and produced happy wool. And the village was happy.

And happy sheep made great wool.

But as more and more sheep joined the commons

The Commons was overused.

The grass ran out.

and tragedy ensued.

The sheep suffered.

And eventually the sheep produced no wool at all. Brrrr.

What did the villagers miss? The villagers should have known that the “Commons” was a common resource. Common resources are always subject to overuse--people (and sheep) are, after all,MAXIMIZERS.

So what does this all mean… The commons is resources that are owned in common or shared between or among communities populations. The local commons is a resource that is shared on a local level like an aquifer that is providing water to the town The global commons is a resource that is shared on a global level, like the fish in the sea.

Other tragedies of the commons: Ocean fishing

Bluefin Tuna Decline 1995 – 2012 (projected)

What type of Commons is this? Global Or Local

Buffalo nearly became extinct by What prevented their extinction? More importantly, why have cattle never been threatened with extinction? Other common resource tragedies: Carolina Parakeet- Eastern US’s only parrot Blast fishing in the Tongan Islands The Amazon rainforests

In every decision we must consider the impact on the next seven generations -The Iroquois Confederacy

What type of Commons is this? Global Or Local

Last of the species died in the Cincinnati Zoo in 1918.

What type of Commons is this? Global Or Local

Every minute 149 acres of rainforest are cut down.

What type of Commons is this? Global Or Local

Blast Fishing not only decimates fish populations but destroys the habitats as well.

What type of Commons is this? Global Or Local

McDonald's at one time was importing 15 million pounds of this type of fish (Hoki). It is now at around 11.5 million.

What type of Commons is this? Global Or Local
