Body Paragraph 5
Example
Yet, Justice claims, even as humans mark their property or separate themselves by mountains and water, it seems inherent in the human creation of place that “much land is held in common in the form of parks, trackless wilderness, public rights of way and public spaces.” Justice utilizes much natural imagery when defining “a commons” like language: “The sunlight that falls to Earth is common to all, plants and animals on land, fish and the whales in the sea.” Further, Justice asserts that “here in the rain forests of the Pacific Northwest, fresh water is a common resource,” implying, even as he invokes the human naming of a region, that this does not override the deeper human tendency to share resources and foster a space that is mutually beneficial.
