While we're certainly seeing the rather horrible destruction of human kind's common heritage, I don't the "tragedy of the commons" model/metaphor [1 ]is at all adequate for describing this situation, which is driven by uniquely powerful and influential forces within our society rather than mere atomistic uncaring of the great masses (which is a factor but not the "driving factor").
