Sure I don't mean we should not do it. You can't do without education. It's a mandatory condition. It's just not enough. People's priority is not to be actors

It's just not enough. People's priority is not to be actors in their society right now. They don't want to exercise the power they have, because that mean also taking the responsibility for it.
I have no idea what the solution is to that problem though.
- akie 10y agoOne standard solution to the "tragedy of the commons" problem is to change the incentives such that the actors don't destroy the commons. Usually involves an external authority (i.e. government) to enforce though. Additionally, this is not a new or unique problem. Similar problems exist in the areas of car safety, flight safety or product safety. The way it's solved there is by enforcing safety standards and denying market access to products or services that don't meet those standards.
