Which best describes the relationship between the United States and oil?

Geography
1 answer:
Scilla [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

What began in the late 1800s as a love of oil (and the  potential wealth oil brings) has turned to a love-hate relationship  with oil. Oil has a wealth of uses, but also a wealth of  consequences.

  • The United States uses one-quarter of the world's energy.
  • The United States is the second-largest producer of oil in the  world.
  • The United States imports more oil than any other country.
  • The United States suffers from a blind and selfish dependency  on oil.
  • The United States struggles with ending its dependency on oil, especially when lobbyists fight this.
  • The United States argues with itself over off-shore oil  drilling. Catastrophes would truly be catastrophic, but the "oil race" continues.

Explanation:

The government of a consumer state has a vested interest in protecting the government of oil-producing states.

What is going on with the natural world around you?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Explanation:

Last year we had the most handsome of ducks -- a mallard. He was with us until the end of June at which time the water on our property dried up. I have a feeling his mate got tired of sitting on the nest all the time and demanded he help.  They built their nest in a thicket that was impossible to get near. We knew about where it was, but it did us no good.

We did get to see the young ones once or twice. It is amazing how quickly they grow. By the end of September, they were all ready to go south -- even the young ones.

This year is very dry -- there's no water for them. So we have not seen the mallards or ducks of any kind and no geese either. We all miss them.

Which of the following goods did not
Mrac [35]

Answer:

The tomatoes didn't come from the Old World during The Columbian Exchange.

Explanation:

During the time of The Columbian Exchange, thousands of goods found their way across the Atlantic, be it from one side or the other. This was very beneficial for both sides, with the Old World and the New World getting goods that imporoved the lives of the people. One of the most popular and nowadays among the most used goods, the tomato, came from the New World and was introduced in the Old World.

The tomatoes originated as a wild plant in the Andes, on the territories of modern-day Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, and Chile. The people living in this region saw their potential and started to cultivate them, and seeing what a delight they are, other people from other parts of the New World started to cultivate them as well. The people of the Old World though were skeptical about the tomatoes initially and were not very fond of them, and they even thought that when they start to go red they are getting spoiled. Over time, this changed as people saw that they have a wonderful food product, so the tomato became one of the most popular goods.
