How did working as cooperative benifit the people living around the reservoir ?
Answers
Cooperation is as old as living beings. The instinct to cooperate with the members of the same genus has been present in almost all living beings. The tiny ant lives with other ants of its kind and stores its food for their common benefit. It is a common thing to see that when a grain of rice or corn is too heavy for a single ant to carry to its abode or nest, two or three ants join together for carrying the grain to their common abode. Similar small insects cooperate together and for instance, bees store honey for their common benefit. Animals in the forest almost live in herds. The human being is no exception. He is a sociable animal by nature. Man cannot live alone by himself. He cannot produce by himself the food or clothing that he needs. Nor can he erect by himself the hut he lives in. He takes the help of the members of his family or others. When the early men began to live in groups called settlements, they joined together; they lived together; they protected from their common enemies, beasts and men; they converted forests into arable lands; and the like. In course of time they adopted the cooperative endeavor in their daily life. Thus the concept of cooperation is as old as human society.
