The Romans adopted and adapted the western Greek alphabet. They adopted some of the Greek gods (Apollo, Asclepius, Castor and Pollux and Cybele, whom they called Magna Mater) and linked their gods to the Greek ones. Their scientific ideas came from the Greeks. They adopted Greek medicine. They adopted Greek sports. Their literature was based on the Greek tragedies and comedies. Their elite men studied the two main Greek school of philosophy of the time: stoicism and Epicureanism. From the late 1st century BC they adopted Greek sculpture The adopted the Greek orders (styles) to make columns (Doric, Ionic and Corinthian) and modelled their temples on the Greek ones. However, for the rest, Roman architecture went way beyond the techniques of the Greeks. The Romans effected what historians have called the Roman architectural revolution.

Can someone write, my (your) definition of civil society in your own words please I really need help.

Katen [24]

Answer: ( give brainliest)

Civil society, dense network of groups, communities, networks, and ties that stand between the individual and the modern state. This modern definition of civil society has become a familiar component of the main strands of contemporary liberal and democratic theorizing. In addition to its descriptive properties, the terminology of civil society carries a litany of ethical and political aspirations and implications. For some of its advocates, the achievement of an independent civil society is a necessary precondition for a healthy democracy, and its relative absence or decline is often cited as both a cause and an effect of various contemporary sociopolitical maladies. The meaning and implications of the concept of civil society have been widely debated. As an analytical framework for interpreting the social world, the idea that civil society should be understood as, by definition, separated from and opposed to the operations of the state and official public institutions has various disadvantages, not the least of which is that it inhibits appreciation of the complex interrelationships between state and society. Equally, the notion that the hugely diverse group life of Western capitalist societies promotes social values that are separable from, and possibly opposed to, the market is hard to defend. The forms of combination and association that typify civil societies in the West are typically affected and shaped by the ideas, traditions, and values that also obtain in the economic sphere.

Which two Asian nations are facing the most significant water and air pollution problems?

abruzzese [7]

Your answer is India and China.

Problems faced in India(water and air pollution)

A diverse range of pollution sources co-exists in urban environments. Conventional sources of air pollution include vehicular emissions, coal-based power plants, fossil fuel consumption in industries and some agricultural activities such as fertilizer application and farm fires. Air pollutants can be natural or may be the result of various anthropogenic activities. Examples include production of brick kilns that use raw wood, agricultural waste or poor quality coal used as a fuel, the roadside burning of organic and plastic waste, cooking that involves the burning of solid biomass or cow dung and the unintentional burning of municipal solid waste at landfills, and construction activities (Kumar et al, 2015) (Figure 3). The local emission inventories point to about 5300 and 7550 tons yr−1 of PM10 and PM2.5 release from waste burning in Delhi, respectively, while the corresponding emissions from construction are 3250 and 10,750 tons yr−1 (Guttikunda and Goel, 2013). Other such sources include diesel generators for temporary power generation in cities, traffic congestion, and

Problems faced in China(water and air pollution)

For over a decade in China, China has been the world’s largest annual emitter of greenhouse gases. Regardless of some pro-ecological alternatives and investments in alternative energy sources, the country’s emissions keep growing, contrary to the worldwide trends.

That seems to be the most worrying part. The other main global polluters, for instance, the US, have been successfully pursuing the reduction of greenhouse gas and particulate matter emissions. That’s not the case with China, which continues to fulfill its growing demand for energy with fossil fuels.
