Read this excerpt from Leah Missbach Day’s foreword to Wheels of Change. In efforts to restart the lives of those devastated by

the crushing waves of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, my husband, F. K. Day, and I founded World Bicycle Relief (WBR). WBR works to provide access to independence and livelihood through the power of bicycles. During our work in Sri Lanka in 2005-2006, we put more than 24,000 new bicycles into the hands of those rebuilding their lives. Since 2006, we have moved into Africa where we currently work in Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Kenya addressing oppressive poverty and the AIDS pandemic by mobilizing volunteer caregivers, students, and entrepreneurs with bicycles.
What is the central idea of the excerpt?
A. WBR was founded in an attempt to assist the victims of a tsunami in 2004
B. WBR believes that bicycles can transform lives by providing independence
C. WBR has moved its headquarters to Africa, where health problems prevail.
D. WBR gives bicycles to everyone struggling with social and health issues.

Which statement was not a criticism of television media in the 1960s? Television promoted stereotypes. Television encouraged con
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

the last one.

Explanation:

In my mind, the answer is the last one.

Stereotypical characters was a nightmare. It encouraged the wrong type of behavior. It presented the Fonz as a standard of behavior for both girls and boys which was unrealistic.

Commercialism is a criticism. It means that we are in competition with our neighbors to see who has the largest yacht. That's not a very good competition.

Nobody lived like the Fonz.

Though it might not be a virtue now, it certainly is not a bad thing to portray. The answer should be the last one.

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:<u> </u><u>The correct option is B:</u>

<em>Each year.CO2 level increases at a faster rate. Over the past 50 years, it has nearly doubled.</em>

In "<em>An inconvenient truth</em>", A1 Gore illustrates clearly how the levels of CO2 has been increasing rapidly in the atmosphere since 1958, and proves that the increasing of the carbon dioxide emissions are a result of human actions. He explains this theory by presenting the Keeling curve, which shows that the last 14 years were the hottest ever recorded in the atmosphere, as well as other important studies proving the correlation between global warming and hurricanes.
