Explanation:

The Department of Defense (DOD), established in 1947, provides for the national security of the United States. It consists of the branches of the US Armed Forces: Army, Navy, and Air Force. The Secretary of Defense oversees the military, protects U.S. interests abroad, and maintains domestic order through the National Guard and Reserve forces. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) , created in 2002 to combat terrorism at home, coordinates federal efforts to prevent terrorists from entering the country or carrying out attacks on American soil; respond to natural disasters; enforce immigration laws; protect the President; enforce drug and firearms laws; protect US borders; assure US computer security against cyber threats posed by nations like China or Russia, who might want to meddle with elections (not all bad stuff!), as well as help states tend to first responders who may be affected by natural disasters or terrorist acts. DHS also manages several agencies that provide emergency services after disasters—including FEMA, which was originally an independent agency under DOD but converted into an agency within DHS when it was created back in 2002.

denpristay [2]

The disapproving looks and comments might be received by Brian due to talking loudly over the cell phone because it creates noise and disturbance in the elevator among the people.

<h3>What is a loud voice?</h3>

The loud voice is something that creates a  great volume. it can be from any device or from any individual when he loudly speaks.

While stepping into an elevator, Brain started talking over the cell phone in a very loud voice which might turn into the disapproving looks or harsh comments from the people standing in the lift. It is because the environment of the lift is getting disturbed by his loud voice. He should maintain some decorum while traveling in the lift and should talk on the cell phone either in a mild voice or when he comes outside the lift.

Therefore, the comments or disapproving looks can be raised toward Brian on talking loudly over the phone in the lift.

Which two Asian nations are facing the most significant water and air pollution problems?
abruzzese [7]

Your answer is India and China.

<u>Problems faced in India(water and air pollution)</u>

<em>A diverse range of pollution sources co-exists in urban environments. Conventional sources of air pollution include vehicular emissions, coal-based power plants, fossil fuel consumption in industries and some agricultural activities such as fertilizer application and farm fires. Air pollutants can be natural or may be the result of various anthropogenic activities. Examples include production of brick kilns that use raw wood, agricultural waste or poor quality coal used as a fuel, the roadside burning of organic and plastic waste, cooking that involves the burning of solid biomass or cow dung and the unintentional burning of municipal solid waste at landfills, and construction activities (Kumar et al, 2015) (Figure 3). The local emission inventories point to about 5300 and 7550 tons yr−1 of PM10 and PM2.5 release from waste burning in Delhi, respectively, while the corresponding emissions from construction are 3250 and 10,750 tons yr−1 (Guttikunda and Goel, 2013). Other such sources include diesel generators for temporary power generation in cities, traffic congestion, and </em>

<u>Problems faced in China(water and air pollution)</u>

For over a decade in China, China has been the world’s largest annual emitter of greenhouse gases. Regardless of some pro-ecological alternatives and investments in alternative energy sources, the country’s emissions keep growing, contrary to the worldwide trends.

That seems to be the most worrying part. The other main global polluters, for instance, the US, have been successfully pursuing the reduction of greenhouse gas and particulate matter emissions. That’s not the case with China, which continues to fulfill its growing demand for energy with fossil fuels.
