The is a , complex gaseous system that sustains life on Earth and interacts with activities . A primary concern for management of the global atmosphere is pollution , the introduction of , particulates , and biological materials that can cause discomfort , disease , or environmental . Alongside generalized climate change and , these issues pose a global commons challenge . International agreements such as the Kyoto under the and the govern emissions and substances that threaten ozone and climate stability .

The High :
? The global or world ocean , as the interconnected system of the Earth's oceanic ( or ) waters that comprise the bulk of the , is a classic global commons .
The UN Convention on the Law of the Sea ( ) helps to govern the high seas . These are classed as seas which are more than from land .

The United Nations Environment Programme ( UNEP ) has identified several areas of need in managing the global ocean :
strengthen national capacities for action , especially in countries ;
improve fisheries ;
reinforce in semi - enclosed and regional seas ;
strengthen controls over ocean disposal of and nuclear wastes ;
advance the of the Sea .

Specific problems identified as in need of attention include rising ;
contamination by hazardous chemicals ( including spills ) ;
microbiological ;
ocean ;
harmful algal ;
and over - fishing and other .

Antarctica
Governed under the Antarctic Treaty System developed under the remit of the Antarctic Treaty ( 53 states are party )
Treaty stipulates that Antarctica must be preserved for research and purposes only
Prevents the use of Antarctica for testing or radioactive activities
Treaty explicitly does not recognise claims to any part of Antarctica by sovereign states and prevents states making such claims for the of the treaty
Covers the entirety of the continental landmass and ice shelves but not the surrounding waters ( due to concerns in 1950s )
Accompanied by a range of other treaties and agreements that focus on specific aspects of flora and and natural resources ( especially the Protocol on Environmental Protection to the Antarctic )

Outer :

Protected by the Outer Space Treaty which prevents any state claiming over any orbital zone , or asteroid
Currently over states are signatories to the treaty
Precludes the mass of orbital zones and the moon
Requires the exploration of space to be done for the benefit of all
International Station a key example of international to explore outer space collectively
The 1979 Treaty governs exploration and exploitation of the moon .

Cyberspace :
Some commentators would argue that cyberspace has also emerged as a new which meets the definition of a ? global common ? by being a resource that is shared by all but is not by a single nation .
As a global system of computers interconnected by telecommunication technologies consisting of millions of private , public , , business , and government resources , it is difficult to argue that the internet is a global commons .
These computing resources are largely owned and subject to private property law , although many are government owned and subject to public law .
