The principle of Utility states that an action then may be said to be conformable to the principle of utility, or, for shortness sake, to utility, (meaning with respect to the community at large) when the tendency it has to augment the happiness of the community is greater than any it has to diminish it.

The idea that "it is the greatest happiness of the greatest number that is the measure of right and evil" is what Bentham referred to as the "basic premise" of his philosophy. He rose to prominence as a key figure in Anglo-American philosophy of law and as a political radical whose ideas helped shape welfarism. He supported freedoms of the individual and the economy, the division of religion and state, freedom of speech, the equality of women, the right to divorce.

lisabon 2012 [21]

let's look at the options:  </span><span>

a. paleo Indians went to war with each other on a large scale due to scarce water resources
- This could be true if it was really hot, but this was not the case. Warming did not mean a really hot climate, but less harsh: so actually, there would be more, not less water resources.


b.paleo Indians relied less on hunting big animals and more on fishing and gathering food
- this is possible ! a warmer climate would mean that there would be more possibility to fish or gather food, which would mean that people didn't have to hunt - and they would not want to hunt big animals, as it's dangerous.

c.paleo Indians faced food shortages that resulted in a lower population
-no, a warmer climate would mean more, not less, food

d.paleo Indians lost land to rising sea level's</span>
