Answer:

Explanation:

It sure wasn't D. They were slaves, bought and sold.

It didn't free the existing slaves in the United States. It made it illegal to import more people to be slaves.

The choice is between A and C.

I think you should pick C which was factually true and exactly what happened. In other words, the law was circumvented.

The problem with A is that it they were let in directly at the request of Georgia and South Carolina.  These two states had very complex responses to the Jan 1, 1808 law. Their economies depended on as many slaves as they could get legally or not.

What was an effect of major environmental issues that occurred in the 1960’s?
bonufazy [111]

Answer: a. The national government instituted regulations to handle environmental issues.

The 1960s and 1970s were a period of increased awareness about environmental issues among the population. One of the catalysts was the book <em>Silent Spring</em> (1962) by Rachel Carson. The book discussed the negative effects of pesticides, in particular DDT, on wildlife. The 1969 Santa Barbara oil spill also generated public outrage. As a result, many regulations were passed in order to protect the environment. Moreover, those that already existed were reviewed and rewritten to make them more comprehensive.
