Answer:

Human beings might coexist with the natural world if they protect the nature by minimum use of products which disturb the nature.

Explanation:

There is a great relationship between human and nature. Human cannot live without nature. Nature provides water for drinking, food and other necessity of life. If we save nature we stop species extinction because there are millions of species present in the natural ecosystem. If we disturb the nature by burning of fossil fuels and cutting of trees, many species lost their habitat and the whole ecosystem is disturbed. So far maintaining balance in the nature, the human must take some serious steps such as protect water bodies from harmful substances and grow more trees etc.

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Explanation:

Roosevelt grew frustrated with Taft's conservatism and belatedly tried to win the 1912 Republican nomination. He failed, walked out, and founded the so-called "Bull Moose" Party which called for wide-ranging progressive reforms. He ran in the 1912 election and the split allowed the Democratic nominee Woodrow Wilson to win the election. Following the defeat, Roosevelt led a two-year expedition to the Amazon basin where he nearly died of tropical disease. During World War I, he criticized President Wilson for keeping the country out of the war with Germany, and his offer to lead volunteers to France was rejected. He considered running for president again in 1920, but his health continued to deteriorate and he died in 1919. The decimation of bison, and the eradication of elk, bighorn sheep, deer and other game species was a loss which Roosevelt felt indicative of society's perception of our natural resources. He saw the effects of overgrazing, and suffered the loss of his ranches because of it. While many still considered natural resources inexhaustible, Roosevelt would write:

We have become great because of the lavish use of our resources. But the time has come to inquire seriously what will happen when our forests are gone, when the coal, the iron, the oil, and the gas are exhausted, when the soils have still further impoverished and washed into the streams, polluting the rivers, denuding the fields and obstructing navigation.

Conservation increasingly became one of Roosevelt's main concerns. After becoming president in 1901, Roosevelt used his authority to protect wildlife and public lands by creating the United States Forest Service (USFS) and establishing 150 national forests, 51 federal bird reserves, 4 national game preserves, 5 national parks, and 18 national monuments by enabling the 1906 American Antiquities Act. During his presidency,Theodore Roosevelt protected approximately 230 million acres of public land.

Today, the legacy of Theodore Roosevelt is found across the country.

When managers of Ford's Theater learned Lincoln would be attending the
Alja [10]

They had cleared out the balcony for the President.

Explanation:

When the theater had found that Lincoln would be attending there was not much that they could do as they had little time.

So they allowed for the balcony to be cleared first of all for his personal use only and for providing the space for his bodyguards there.

However, this would not prove to be enough as he would be eventually assassinated in that space only and it could have been harder for the man to do it in some place else.

There was much more civil unrest during the 1960s than the 1950s. However, unrest in both decades was caused by the issues of African American rights and grievances. In the 1960s, but not the 1950s, unrest was also caused by the Vietnam War. In the 1950s, there was little civil unrest in the US.
