Do you think the humans will always destroy the commons (water, land, etc.) that they share? why or why not?

No, i don't believe so.

Humans will only destroy the commons if we exploit them at a higher pace than they can regenerate.

If we massively exploits them simply for profit, there is a high chance that we would destroy them. But, if we take only what we need and put extra conservation efforts for these resources, they would not be destroyed and we can keep obtaining what we need from the commons.
