History

Agriculture showed weakness before the great depression, actually rural parts of America never recovered from the depression that followed WWI. Prices were declining and farmers were behind their mortgages at that time. In the Great Plains problems were even bigger, because farmers faced a severe drought, dust storms, and insects. When the Great Depression came, things got even worse.

Foreign Trade before the Great Depression was a small part of the US economic activity. It was concentrated mostly on farms. The World at the time did not demand American goods as much as before, because of WWI, also, European industry and agriculture were more productive after the War and because of the war, European countries decided not to buy goods from overseas and invest in their own countries.

Credit was another weakness before the Great Depression, as said before, farmers were having many troubles and many of them had their land mortgaged. Crop prices were down and they could not pay what they owed to the banks. This caused a crisis before the Great Depression, the country was full of small banks which made unwise loans and invested poorly in stock markets.

Agriculture--increased production needed during World War I didn't stop after the war. Over production after the war caused crop prices to decrease meaning less money for farmers to pay their debts. Many farmers lost their land during the 1920s before the Great Depression began. 

Foreign trade--much of the world was experiencing a depression after World War I. The US's foreign trade greatly decreased and reduced the markets available for production of food and goods. Also the US began a system of circular loans to help prop up countries in debt, in particular Germany.

Credit--Many Americans were buying goods and stocks on credit. This was based on an early booming economy. However, when over produced items could not be sold, jobs were lost, and people were unable to pay back the credit. This will impact banks, the stock market, and the job market.

Coba kalian identifikasi/temukan nilai nilai apa saja yang terdapat dalam puisi demokrasi kebun binatang
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Dalam sebulan terakhir, kematian hewan di penangkaran telah menyoroti kekhawatiran yang terus berlanjut seputar konservasi. Kebun binatang adalah hiburan, dan meski berkontribusi pada konservasi, mereka tidak memberikan solusi nyata apa pun. Satwa liar hanya dapat diselamatkan dengan memberdayakan perlindungan mereka di habitat alaminya sendiri — dan itu berarti kita harus bekerja dengan komunitas lokal dan bukan melawan mereka.

Pada 28 Mei 2016, misalnya, Harambe, seekor gorila yang lahir di penangkaran, ditembak mati setelah seorang bocah lelaki jatuh ke kandangnya di Kebun Binatang Cincinnati di Amerika Serikat. Seminggu sebelumnya, dua singa dimusnahkan di Kebun Binatang Metropolitan Santiago di Chili, dan seminggu sebelumnya seekor gajah Sumatera bernama Yani mati di Kebun Binatang Surabaya yang terkenal kejam di Indonesia. Diskusi online telah meledak tentang masing-masing kasus menyedihkan ini, tetapi pada umumnya itu adalah debat yang mengecualikan pandangan orang-orang yang paling penting untuk sukses.

Penentang kebun binatang seperti Marc Bekoff, seorang ahli ekologi perilaku dan profesor emeritus di Universitas Colorado, berpendapat bahwa kehidupan hewan di penangkaran adalah bayangan dari pengalaman mereka di alam liar. Para pendukung kebun binatang seperti Asosiasi Kebun Binatang dan Akuarium Dunia berpendapat bahwa manfaat konservasi yang diberikan kebun binatang lebih besar daripada biaya terisolasi (meskipun tragis) yang dibayarkan oleh hewan yang terlibat.

Di media sosial, para pendukung kebun binatang mengatakan bahwa hewan-hewan penangkaran berfungsi sebagai 'duta' konservasi untuk rekan-rekan mereka yang liar, dan bahwa kebun binatang adalah 'Bahtera Nuh' yang menyediakan penyangga terhadap penurunan spesies yang terancam punah. Sebenarnya, ini adalah naskah yang bahkan diam-diam ditinggalkan oleh industri kebun binatang.

Sementara beberapa spesies seperti oryx, serigala dan condor mendapat manfaat dari program penangkaran, ada sedikit bukti berharga bahwa genetika yang dibiakkan di kebun binatang digunakan untuk memperkuat populasi gorila, gajah, dan lumba-lumba liar. Kebun binatang menyadari bahwa mereka tidak memiliki cukup ruang untuk terlibat dalam program pemuliaan mamalia besar yang berhasil, dan tidak dapat menampung lebih dari sebagian kecil dari 22.784 spesies di dunia yang terancam punah. Jadi, mengapa kebun binatang bertahan?

Kebun binatang memulai kehidupan sebagai hiburan, dan sementara mereka berevolusi, mereka masih ada untuk menghasilkan uang dan memanfaatkan selera masyarakat yang kaya akan hiburan. Tetapi pada tingkat yang lebih dalam, mereka adalah komponen kunci dari sistem konservasi internasional yang menyerupai masa lalu kolonial dan rasial Barat. Sistem ini percaya bahwa komunitas di belahan dunia tempat sebagian besar spesies yang terancam punah hidup adalah masalah yang harus diperbaiki — paling sering dengan memperoleh tanah tradisional, mendirikan kamp dan pengalaman lain untuk turis kaya, dan mempekerjakan penjaga pembawa senjata untuk berpatroli di perbatasan taman dan cagar alam.
