The Portuguese Burghers[1][2][3] are an ethnic group in Sri Lanka, of mixed Portuguese and Sri Lankan descent.[4] They are Roman Catholic and spoke the Sri Lanka Indo-Portuguese language, a creole based on Portuguese. In modern times, English has become the common language while Sinhalese is taught in school as a second language. Many Portuguese Burghers living on the east coast of Sri Lanka are of Portuguese descent; this is evident in the Sri Lanka-Indo Portuguese language, which has many affiliations to Sinhalese and Portuguese.[5] They are mixed with other Burgher people, including Dutch Burghers. However, Portuguese Burghers are not Dutch Burghers.[6]

In his cause to make Atlanta a model city, he supported the early Civil Rights movement and was most famous for his work towards achieving racial equality. Thus, race relations in Atlanta were more progressive than in other southern cities. He was later credited with the slogan "Atlanta is the city too busy to hate".

Answer:
Yes. Such an action constitutes a tort and a crime.
Explanation:
A tort is a wrong done to another person while a crime is the breaking of the law of the state or Federal government. Put simply, a tort is a wrongdoing on a personal level while a crime is a wrongdoing on a societal level, while tort is privately morally wrong, crime is publicly legally wrong.
In the scenario above there is a 'tort' because the employees are spitting into the food of those they do not like. This is on a personal level as they are not spitting into the food of every customer but only the food of those they dislike. Also, a crime exists because this is happening at a public place. It can be said that those restaurants are intentionally serving unhealthy foods to members of the public and both the owners and employees of those restaurants could be charged.
Clean energy vs. dirty energy. Renewable energy.The biggest challenge faced by America in 2016 is that of moving our energy use away from fossil fuels in order to address climate change.There is overwhelming scientific consensus that the increase in atmospheric greenhouse gases due to use of fossil fuels is warming earth’s climate, and will result in sea level rise, loss of agricultural areas and increasingly severe weather events. The challenge is to create the political will to take aggressive action consistent with this knowledge by reducing our reliance on fossil fuels.
<span>The EPA’s Clean Power Plan, and recent Paris agreement are steps in the right direction, but aren’t sufficient to put us on a safe path. We can achieve a greater reduction of carbon emissions by creating incentives which work throughout the economy to encourage conservation and a shift to low-carbon energy. Incentives such as a tax on fossil carbon can accomplish this without damaging the economy, if carbon-tax revenues are returned to households, for example as a dividend similar to a tax refund.</span>Look for plenty of myth-busting and interesting news to come, as well as practical tips to reduce your own energy dependence. Though no single energy source is going to be the solution, positive developments toward a cleaner future are happening every single day.<span>. Waste
Also...maybe Climate Change, Waste, Water, Food, </span>Ecosystems and Endangered Species, The Science of Public Health Issues. All of these are environmental problems we face. But Ya!!!! I hope this helps!!! This is all I know about this topic!!! Good Luck! :)
