Answer:

a. There is no cause for concern because human population growth is not correlated with the global ecological footprint

Explanation:

The global ecological footprint needs to use as precise methodology as possible. The reason why it has to have very prices methodology is so that the data is the best possible, and once the data is presenting the reality, than the problem can be addressed adequately and a proper and an efficient solution can be constructed. By ignoring the growth of the human population, the methodology practically suggests that the human are not related to the global ecological footprint, which is not true. The human population is actually the one that has the biggest ecological footprint, so the changes in the population always have to be taken in consideration, as without it there can not be a proper response because of the false data.

Why are central Africa’s natural resources underdeveloped

The second assumption is that there is something exceptional about Africa, that while other continents and peoples have got or are getting richer, Africans, for reasons we can think but no longer speak in polite company, choose to remain in poverty. Our capacity to see Africa as divergent lets us off the hook so we don’t have to understand our own complicity in the challenges various African countries face today. It also means we rarely rage as we should against the actions of the corporations and governments that profit from instability, corruption or even inexperience (African negotiators at the climate talks have historically been disadvantaged by their lack of experience and the expectation among western negotiators that they should be grateful with whatever they get).

If there is, then, no innate propensity for corruption, violence or poverty in Africa, then the narratives that fuel the stereotypes need questioning. One possible explanation comes from the Nigerian author Chinua Achebe, who said: “The west seems to suffer deep anxieties about the precariousness of its civilisation and to have a need for constant reassurance by comparison with Africa.” Perhaps it’s not Africa that needs saving, but us.

What grade would you give the lorax movie and why
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

4.7 out of 5

Explanation:

It has a great storyline and a great lesson in it: to every action, there is a consequence, whether good or bad; and that there is always a way to make the world a better place.

That .3 points I didn't give it was because of that horrible song he sings "How ba-a-a-a-a-a-d can I be"

But I will say, "Let It Grow" is a catchy song... "let it die, let it die, let it shrivel up and die" lol

Hope this helps :)
