Since the attacks on American targets happened on September 11, 2001, Americans have been required by their government and by so

cial pressure to give up or limit certain freedoms that they formerly took for granted. Americans now must endure onerous security checks at airports, have their communications and library records monitored through secret warrants, even in some instances give up the right to habeas corpus. The argument in favor of these actions has been that Americans must sacrifice some civil liberties to obtain security, especially in a time of war. Opponents argue that such intrusions amount to an unjustified abuse and extension of government power?

Yes, Americans who oppose this new reality argue that this is a government interference in private life, so as to hurt individual freedoms. Of course, such conduct divides opinions. However, it is noteworthy that in the name of national security, this is not illegal, the government has the prerogative to intervene to protect society as a whole. Unfortunately this is a reality that we have to live with, since the terrorist attacks happen by surprise. I agree with this conduct, because in my view it is better to sacrifice some of our freedom to stay safe in this violent world.

il63 [147K]

Answer:

A. Fishing technology allowed huge catches of cod in the Grand Banks fishing grounds that collapsed the fishing industry in the 1990s as cod populations fell to very low levels.

Explanation:

The tragedy of the commons is an economic problem in which every individual has an incentive to consume a resource at the expense of every other individual with no way to exclude anyone from consuming, and this will lead overexploitation of the resource until it becomes unavailable to everyone.

An example of the tragedy of commons is the Grand Banks fishing ground. For centuries, explorers and fishermen described this region as home to an endless supply of cod fish. In the 1960s and 1970s, advances in fishing technology allowed huge catches of cod. Following a few dramatically large seasons, the fish populations dropped, forcing Canadian fishermen to sail farther to maintain large catch sizes each season.

By the 1990s, cod populations were so low that the Grand Banks fishing industry collapsed. It was too late for regulation and management; the cod stocks had been irreparably damaged. Since then, the cod populations have remained low, and some scientists doubt the Grand Banks ecosystem will ever recover.
