SUMMARY:Go Green Reads: The Tragedy of the Commons
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our next discussion in March\, which will be a fun one. Bookseller and environmentalist Jon Grand and economist and environmentalist Craig Witty will lead a discussion of the 1968 article\, The Tragedy of the Commons\, by Garrett Hardin. The Tragedy of the Commons explains individuals’ tendencies to make decisions based on their personal needs and self-interest\, regardless of the negative impact they may have on others. In the environmental context\, resources are overused\, exploited\, and eventually depleted\, to the detriment of all. \nThe online article can be found at this LINK. \nPlease register for this discussion through the Zoom link. After registering\, you will receive a confirmation email with the link for joining the discussion. Email gogreenreads@gmail.com with any questions or issues. \nThank you to The Book Stall for its generous support of our communities and these discussions!
