 Without the `move` keyword, the closure expression [infers how it captures each variable from its environment](../types/closure.md#capture-modes), preferring to capture by shared reference, effectively borrowing all outer variables mentioned inside the closure's body.

 A closure can be forced to capture its environment by copying or moving values by prefixing it with the `move` keyword. This is often used to ensure that the closure's lifetime is `'static`.
