Answer:
A draft of wind blew past and ran through her hair. The air was crisp and the ocean smelled fresh and there was a thick coat of fog swirling around in the atmosphere. Passing crows flew through the air gracefully, their loud, croaky barks filling the air in a crescendo of volume. Sarah stared off into the distance as the cold and salty water lapped up onto the shore, and the sky was like a curtain of silk with puffy clouds of creamy white, that reminded her of the inside of her favorite dessert, a light and flaky pâte à choux pastry. She stared at the waves crashing upon the shore longingly. The beautiful sound of the waves soothed her like a lullaby her mother used to sing her when she was little. She dug her toes into the grainy, damp sand. She ran. Clumps of seaweed that had washed up on the beach made her stumble, but she kept going. The horizon was a line of nickel-silver. The sunset, a splash of red, yellow, and orange seemed to be seducing her and causing her to run even faster. Sarah jumped. The waves fell down upon her, wrapping her like a huge blanket. The salty water felt good. She grinned contently, vivacious, obviously pleased with her incredible accomplishment.

Answer:
There is a long-standing dispute on the extent to which population growth causes environmental degradation. Most studies on this link have so far analyzed cross-country data, finding contradictory results. However, these country-level analyses suffer from the high level of dissimilarity between world regions and strong collinearity of population growth, income, and other factors. We argue that regional-level analyses can provide more robust evidence, isolating the population effect from national particularities such as policies or culture. We compile a dataset of 1062 regions within 22 European countries and analyze the effect from population growth on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and urban land use change between 1990 and 2006. Data are analyzed using panel regressions, spatial econometric models, and propensity score matching where regions with high population growth are matched to otherwise highly similar regions exhibiting significantly less growth. We find a considerable effect from regional population growth on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and urban land use increase in Western Europe. By contrast, in the new member states in the East, other factors appear more important.

Explanation:
During the fight that happened with the agents, where all the slaves were tied by hands and the agents wanted to shoot Henry, Douglass, without knowing how, managed to take the paper pass he wrote and throw it into the fire without being discovered.
