Reflect on a time when you experienced a different culture or interacted with someone from a different culture. How did the cultural differences influence your interaction?

I once was house-sitting for a Jewish family who had a huge kitchen they divided in two. One kitchen was for meats and the other was for vegetables. This shocked me and made an easy job difficult since I had to take care not to mix utensils or dishes. The vegetables were to remain separate from the meats and couldn't even be eaten with the same utensils.

Their customs were to be respected even though it was new and bizarre to me.

this statement is true.

forests are public goods, available for everybody. when usage of such a good becomes interesting for consumers and its usage increases, there can be a risk of overexploitation. it is a non rival good therefore, if one person consumes the good it does not reduce the availability for subsequent consumers.

these caracteristics require the establishment of measures in order to prevent the destruction of a commonly owned space, for example, to restrict the amount of people that have access to the same time.
