Tragedy of the Commons
A model on sustainable use of the commons
During a job interview, you are confronted with the EZ417 from Bossel (2004b) which illustrates the tragedy of the commons. Your future employer would like to know how the management should be changed to end up with a sustainable use.
Please change the management strategy in the model. While multi model runs would be necessary to actually proof the effect of your strategy under a variety of boundary conditions, the interviewers are satisfied if the model shows a sustainable development for the original standard settings of the variables.
