Explanation:

"Lifeboat Ethics" is an essay by Garret Hardin, published in 1974, in which he discusses the distribution of resources between the rich and the poor.

Environmentalists, according to the author, compare our planet to a spaceship and idealistically claim that no person or institution has the right to destroy, waste, or use more than a fair share of the "spaceship's" resources, since we all live in it.  

Hardin, on the other hand, would rather compare our planet's countries to lifeboats. The rich countries would be the lifeboats full of rich people, while the poor countries would be the poor people swimming in the ocean . The author conceived that image from the known fact that, when ships sank, rich people were prioritized to be saved.

A poor person would want to climb into a lifeboat, but there is a lot to be taken into consideration before allowing them to do so, such as the lifeboat's capacity. In the excerpt we are analyzing here, Hardin uses an appeal to ethics by considering that his argument is quite harsh in that aspect. Taking reproductive differences between the rich and the poor nations may sound quite insensitive, but Hardin sees it as an important aspect to be thought of. Ethically speaking, it may seem wrong. But if not fully taken into consideration, it may bring considerable problems to nations. In summary, Hardin does not believe equality in sharing the planet's resources could be easily achieved as the environmentalists do.

to whom may it may concern;

i have recently ordered a product from your online shop. the shipping details read that my order would be delivered by the 8th of december, whereas it was delivered the 13th. i needed the package for a christmas exchange. 

since i paid for overnight shipping, but did not receive the package in the time allotted, i am kindly asking for a refund. the product was just perfect, but i do not believe i should have to pay for a quick shipping if it came late.

you for your time, i hope to hear from you soon.

sincerely,

john smith
