Explanation:
Dhiki (Nepali : ढिकी [ɖʱiki]), Dhinki or ढिँकि in Odia, is a traditional Nepalese rice (millet etc.) beater used in villages. In Odia,it is called Dhinki ଢିଙ୍କି. The manual wooden thresher 'Dhiki' is made of wood and works like a lever, but is instead used for grinding. The framework consists of a fulcrum having two pillars on each side, an effort area (where one person stands on the long thick plank of wood making effort at every interval), a long and thick plank of horizontal wood which has a small vertical extension that goes into a hole made in the ground. It is in this hole that the grains or dry chillies are kept to transform them into powder. the person using this usually places his/her leg on one side and press it hard and then leave it so that the other part hits the rice, millet, etc. and grinds it. It works like the see-saw i.e. when one part's up the other one's down and vice versa. It is a local technology used in nepali villages. When, rice mill was not used, this Dhinki used to dehusk the rice, make various powders like rice powder, masala powder etc. The dehusked rice was very healthy as it was not polished. The device required two persons. One to push the log upward by foot pressing of the lever downward and the second person rotate the rice load for uniform pounding.
Answer:
According to John Kingdon, it takes basically three steps: the problem; the solution; political will. If you show a problem without it's solution, it will not get the necessary attention and nothing will happen. Political will is very important too, and it can come from many factors, like post-elections views and natural disasters. These three fluxes have to encounter in order to get enough attention and make an available solution to fix the problem. This is called a policy window and it is highly important for the agenda setting on politics issues in a country.
Lets put the fires in Amazon forest as the environmental issue. It is caused by livestock producers, specially cows, that burn the threes to make more free lands to put their animals. With the conservative government that works in partnership it is not interesting to save the amazon forest. It is the opposition and the people's job to raise awareness about the situation and propose solutions. The political will can come by people's interest, and in this case, by the influence of others countries opinions over the subjects, like France.
It is set by law and cannot be altered
