4.1 Introduction to the tragedy of the commons in general. On February 3, 2023, there was a train in Ohio that derailed. That on its own is a tragedy, but this train was carrying toxic chemicals that burst into flame after the train crash. the locals had to move out of the town.

He would be defending the science behind range land function. It really seems that the TEDTalk speaker had stepped on some toes in science. 1.2 They start out by mentioning that he is a soldier, basically allowing him to see other areas of the world. adding the in also gives him a more human appeal. There is a wide conception that all soldiers are inherently good. I believe we are speaking about the same person as the first article. He is suggesting a controversial topic about how it is necessary to keep livestock in areas to prevent deforestation. After seeing this happen over his lifetime he wanted to help slow this process. We also have remnants of that Ted talk where he has said he has seen this over decades giving him more credibility.  2.0 Pur...
