Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is known as the tragedy of the commons, where individuals act in their own self-interest and take as much as they can from a shared resource without considering the consequences for others. This can lead to depletion of the resource, as everyone continues to take without regard for others or the long-term sustainability of the resource. The only way to prevent this tragedy is through cooperative management and conservation of the resource.
