Answer:

The volcanoes provided, on the surface of the earth, the heat, water and the powerful cocktail of organic compounds (hydrogen sulphide, arsenic) that are at the beginning of life. In fact, the primitive organisms are for 2 billion years, fed by this soup, which makes scientists say that volcanic lakes are one of the possible cradles of life. The volcanoes not only kept life but also protected it in a distant time when the sun warmed our planet much less than today.

The intense performance of CO2 (carbon dioxide) volcanoes allowed the Earth's heat to fix itself permanently in our atmosphere. It is thanks to volcanic cataclysms that our planet was able to leave its frozen sphere state. In fact there are about 600 million years, an intense glacial period fell on the Earth, glaciers were present everywhere, the polar caps descended to the equator that covered the entire surface of the planet.

Long lines at the gas pumps were a result of what economic problem?

Phoenix [80]

In the 1970s, the supply of gas was affected by price controls imposed by the Nixon administration and then by an oil embargo by Arab members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).

As a political move aimed at pleasing voters, President Richard Nixon announced in 1971 (prior to his reelection campaign of 1972), "I am today ordering a freeze on all prices and wages throughout the United States.” The wage and price controls the Nixon administration sought to put in place interfered with natural market forces and oil supplies were reduced. That problem was magnified in 1973 when oil exporting countries in the Arab world imposed an embargo on supplies to the United States due to US support of Israel in a war that Israel was fighting against a coalition of Arab states.

Both factors -- lingering efforts at price controls and continued control of the oil and gas market by OPEC nations -- played into the long lines at gas pumps seen in America in the 1970s.
