<span>D) Triangle Shirtwaist Factory Fire

The fire that burned down the </span><span>Triangle Shirtwaist Company factory in New York City in 1911 killed 145 workers.  Neglecting safety caused the fire, and having locked doors and insufficient escape routes contributed to the large death toll.  The majority of workers were teenage immigrant young women, working 12 hour days all week long.  Many of those who died had tried to jump from the building's upper floors to the street below to escape the fire.

What does the history of 14th century Black Plague teach us about possible economic and environmental impacts on our society aft
lozanna [386]

Answer:

The history of the Black Plague serves to project the environmental and economic consequences of the current coronavirus pandemic, given the similarities between both historical events.

Thus, the Black Plague implied, like the current pandemic, an almost total cessation of economic activities at the global level, causing a consequent increase in poverty rates, with the consequent decrease in the population's standard of living.

But, on the other hand, the decrease in production during the Plague had beneficial effects for the environment, since it decreased the increasing rates of environmental pollution at that time. In this sense, a similar situation is being experienced in the present, since restrictions on certain activities and circulation in general have slowed down the already advanced global pollution process.
