In 1968 Garrett Hardin described the tragedy of the commons. The classic example of the commons is a pasture where any community member can graze his or her livestock. What would be the modern equivalent of the commons?

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although the question does not include options, we can answer the following.

A modern equivalent of the tragedy of the commons could be fishing. Yes, when fishermen tried to fish more and more to make more profits, putting in danger some fishes species, this could be the equivalent in modern times.

The Tragedy of the Commons means that people or in modern terms, companies, deplete common of shared resources just because they want to outplay the competition, or for the sake or generate more income and dominate the market, not knowing that they are risking the limited resources.

they could have a boston tea party.

genetics is the study of how dna works, the methodologies defining the new recent technologies allow scientist to have a panoramic view of the entire dna landscape, especially how genomes interact with their environment, including off course, factors outside their organisms.

thus is very possible the existence of both scenarios, where populations of isolated individuals have different genetic traits, and share traits related to genetic mutation, due rats can easily travel overseas using human transport channels. so scientists could get a vast number of data, including human interaction, evolution of rodents, health development, spread of infections, development of new organisms, how genomes evolve in different environments and so on.
