Answer:
Hardin's metaphor describes a lifeboat bearing 50 people, with room for ten more. The lifeboat is in an ocean surrounded by a hundred swimmers. The "ethics" of the situation stem from the dilemma of whether (and under what circumstances) swimmers should be taken aboard the lifeboat.
Hardin compared the lifeboat metaphor to the Spaceship Earth model of resource distribution, which he criticizes by asserting that a spaceship would be directed by a single leader – a captain – which the Earth lacks. Hardin asserts that the spaceship model leads to the tragedy of the commons. In contrast, the lifeboat metaphor presents individual lifeboats as rich nations and the swimmers as poor nations.

Answer:
"A Call for Unity
"
Explanation:
<u>“A Call for Unity” was an open letter composed by the white clergymen. It was published in Birmingham, Alabama after the arrest of King and other people who urged for civil rights by actions of civil disobedience. </u>
<u>In the letter, the men stated that they are agreeing with the need for equality, but not in the way in which King tried to gain it. </u>They deemed him as the outsider and urged people to try to legally solve problems, and not by protests and disobedience.
King referred to these men at the beginning of the famous "Letter from Birmingham Jail”. He noted that he sees they have the right ideas, but that there is a good reason for his actions, and proceeds to explain them, as well as the problem.
