You can't pick my fruit.
Oh yeah?
I live next to you and drill 2,000 feet down and start pulling up oil. What is the extent of that oil reserve relative to my land?
I pull water from an aquifer accessed from my land, which is next to yours.
I go out onto the deep blue sea and fish.
A river runs through my backyard and yours, and I fish that river.
The short term profit derived from cutting down the rain forest on my property which is next to yours allows me to live a great life, since I have nobody to pass on my inheritance to. However, the act of cutting down that rain forest has created edge effects at our common property line, which has a deleterious effect on the ecosystem of your property.
