Starry Skies and Milky Way over the Grand Canyon

Looking down into the Grand Canyon from the north rim. The milky Way shines bright over the canyon while the lights on the far rim are the hotels and lodge at the south rim.

Colorado River in the Grand Canyon

Looking down into the depths of the Grand Canyon at the Colorado River. This is truly one of the epic wonders of the natural world. It is a place that can defy words and one that the distances are so big they can fool you.

In our previous post on #InstaEconomics, we were talking about #PublicGoods

Today, we will ask you a simple question.

Are parks considered to be public goods?

Well the answer here is that - it depends.

We have to 'define' specifically which park we are talking about.

Consider Choa Chu Kang Park, a small park in the neighbourhood of Choa Chu Kang (obviously .)
Can it be excludable? Yes. You can put barriers around the park and prevent entry, if you wanted!
Would it be rivalrous? Yes. In a small park like this, if there are too many people in the park would it destroy your romantic ambience for dating or a nice evening walk? That would diminish the quality of consumption.

Thus we would say Choa Chu Kang Park is NOT a public good.

Let's consider the case of Grand Canyon National Park! #grandcanyon

It is NON-EXCLUDABLE. Why? Well Grand Canyon National Park is 4,926 km² and is HUGE. It would be prohibitively expensive to (erect any form of barrier) to exclude any specific group of people from consumption.

It is also NON-RIVALROUS. With such a huge size, it is hard to imagine that the consumption by one additional user would deprive/diminish somebody else of consumption.

Thus, Grand Canyon National Park is said to be a PUBLIC GOOD.

Cool right, the definition matters ;)

We will continue to talk about Public goods on the next post of #InstaEconomics

Sunrise over the Grand Canyon

An amazing sunrise from Yavapai Point at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. Truly one of the epic wonders of the world, the Grand Canyon can defy words. If a picture is worth a thousand words, being there in person is worth a million pictures. One of those places everyone should see.
