One local community alone cannot ruin conservation efforts
No? So say a community decides to build a dam
And that floods a large portion of the land the other community was focusing conservation efforts.
In turn this causes the fish to stop reproducing as they can no longer get to their spawning grounds.
This leads to a build up of heavy metals in the water and algae blooms due to nothing eating the algae anymore. This leads to the water becoming toxic and deoxidized.
This isn't a hypothetical either. This is what is happening in Quebec.
If you honestly believe that one can not ruin something for the many then you're ignorant, or you don't care.
@Summī Imperator, 呪い殿 first off, who built that dam?
It would be the one who chose industry.
Not my question
The community needs electricity to run machines.
Unless you mean that ultimately the decision lies with the state to build a dam.
No
Who built that dam?
Uh...
In Quebec
Oh, well that's stupid. It was Quebec.
The one you used as an example
So the province allowed it.
In other words not a local community
It was allowed by the community.
Via the Democratic process.
And lack of resistance.
Democratic process is awful, but that is a side point
It was also welcomed.
As it created jobs.
Neither does democracy = local community
And an economy.
And again, how does that mitigate the affect the one community might have on the others?
Because democracy serves the majority interest, not the community interest
I used it as an example of the effects a dam can have.
Not as an example of building it.
direct democracy serves majority interest
Or by whom.
not all kinds
The US is technically a democracy and
there isn't mob rule here
I was just asking you what would be the punishment for such a transgression and who would enforce it?
Democracy=gay
Ur gay
