hello there
Andrea's point is probably the answer you're looking for, however, you should keep in mind that many (most?) environmental laws are driven more by politics than by the available data. Scientists do research on any number of topics (environmental or not) that have implications for our society. We (scientists) like to think that policy makers take our data and results into consideration when drafting legislation, but I would say that in my experience this rarely happens. For one, there have rarely been any federal legislators who understand science. Even the few physicians who've gone into politics seem largely to fail to understand very basic tenets of science, or at least they don't often demonstrate it with their political actions. Leaving environmental issues, for example, if politicians took science into account, there would be no discussion in any school district in the country about whether or not evolution should be taught in schools, as there are simply *NO* scientists who are qualified to have an opinion who would suggest it shouldn't. Environmental issues are not really any different.

Answer:
B. the Midwest
Explanation:
The people that have German, Polish, and Scandinavian origin in the United States, tend to be concentrated the most in the Midwest region of the country. There's a very simple explanation for this. In the period when there was a policy about settling more toward the west, which in that period was the Midwest, as the settlers were concentrated around the East Coast, there were some very lucrative offers. The people that were going to move in in this region were going to get very large pieces of land for farming for free or for very small price. This attracted lot of people, as they were given the chance to be farmers and start their lives all over again. In Europe, the situation was not the best in Poland, Germany, and Scandinavia in this period, and lot of people were migrating in the US. As they came upon this initiative, they accepted the offer gladly, so almost all of them settled in the Midwest. There were so many people from these countries that settled, that the Germans for example are actually the largest ethnic group of which the people claim ancestry in the United States.
