They by definition are collective. The air is collective. It moves around and apart from windmills, there's not a lot to stop it. <As for common interests I don't necessarily want them to be collectivist either, or decided by some quasi world government. I don't want CO2 emissions for businesses or spectrum rights to be handed down by some international body. If they are going to be internationally decided it should be by specific treaty.>

Spectrum is collective. Photons go rampaging off into the aether and some of them propagate a long way. The oceans are also collective - they circle around in an endless quest for a lower level, carrying pollution with them.
