The correct answer is False

Explanation:

The term "subsidence" describes a phenomenon in which the ground's surface sinks or has a downward movement. This can be naturally caused by certain processes such as natural compaction or natural changes in the soil. However, nowadays most cases of subsidence are the result of human actives and especially due to the withdrawal of materials that are underground such as petroleum or groundwater.

In the case of groundwater, which refers to the extraction of water that is beneath the surface of soil, this is used for multiple purposes such as irrigating crops, getting drinking water and for industry and in all these cases it can lead to subsidence depending on the conditions of the soil and the amount of water extracted. This implies both types of withdrawals of groundwater cause subsidence and therefore it is false withdrawal of groundwater for agriculture does not cause land subsidence but withdrawal for water does.

What was the problem amd one reform related to logging practices?
notsponge [240]
Since you don't specify in your question whether you mean any specific region, i will assume that it could be anywhere.

So let's take Indonesia as an example: the reform was only allowing logging in some regions, and not allowing logging outside of these regions.

The  problem with this is that this is hard to implement and despite this prohibition, logging is still widespread everywhere.

Whose idea was the boycott?​
slamgirl [31]

Depends, which boycott are we talking about? I'm guessing you are talking about the Montgomery Bus Boycott

The Montgomery Bus Boycott was a civil-rights movement in the 1950's where African Americans refused to ride city buses because of segregated seats. It started because of a woman named Rosa Parks who refused to give up her bus seat to a white man who had boarded the bus. She was arrested for this, and this sparked the boycott. Martin Luther King Jr. lead this movement and made it to Supreme Court, ruling that segregated buses were unconstitutional, and the boycott ended successfully.

Hope that helped :)
