Jacob Riis was a police reporter and a social reformer. His book version of “How the other half lives” was published and highlighted the plight of the people living in tenement apartments. Immigrants who had just come to United states for a better life lived in these tenements. The living conditions were pathetic. Buildings were overcrowded, poorly ventilated and quite dark. They did not even have proper sanitation, so pests and bugs were a common problem there. There were children working in factories or were newsboys or garment workers.

The beginning of the passage states that China is a major pollutant, and that this has caused a lot of damage to its ecosystems. However, towards the middle part of the passage, the text discusses what things are changing in order to reduce this problem. The first strategy that is discussed is how the government is trying to clean lakes and rivers. The second one is that the population is protesting the use of fossil fuels and trying to encourage the use of renewable energy.
There are several reasons as to why the white American colonists created a slave labor system, some of which are:
- They created enormous plantations of cash crops. This meant that lot of labor was needed and the white colonists were not in high enough number, nor were they willing to engage in such a high intensity labor. The best solution for them were the slaves.
- Initially the white colonists planned on using the Native Americans as labor force. This didn't went as planned as the majority of the Native Americans died out because of diseases they brought from Europe, as well as conflicts and displacements.
- The slaves were relatively cheap and abundant, as well as easy to get. Once they were bought they were the cheapest and most efficient possible work force, as they were not paid, only provided with shelter and food, and the owners had total control over theme, thus often forcing them to work throughout all of the day.
