How The "Tragedy Of The Commons" Applies To Using Forests As Wood For Fuel And Housing

Abstract: 4 pages in length. The ever-changing landscape to which Garrett Hardin refers in his groundbreaking work entitled The Tragedy of the Commons reflects three prominent issues: social welfare, the environment and conscience. Examining how deforestation is an integral aspect of the way in which humanity can no longer find technical solutions to such gargantuan problems, it becomes clear how the current strides toward preservation represent the ongoing struggle for peaceful compromise between man and his surroundings, both natural and manufactured. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
