A warming climate can cause seawater to expand and ice over land to melt, both of which can cause a rise in sea level.

First, warmer temperatures cause ice on land like glaciers and ice sheets to melt, and the melt water flows into the ocean to increase sea level. Second, warm water expands and takes up more space than colder water, increasing the volume of water in the sea. Sea level rise will hit the coasts the hardest.

In his “Letter from Birmingham Jail,” how did Martin Luther King describe the purpose of

EastWind [94]

Answer:

A. to ease tension to promote negotiation

Explanation:

Martin Luther King Jr. was aware that violence rarely solves problems in which no side gets hurt. This led him to believe that while the African Americans should 'fight' for their rights, they should do it peacefully. If they used violence, it would give a reason for their opponents to use violence, as well as take away any outside support that may have formed through sympathy from using non-violence means. Also, if their opponents use violence and they answer with non-violence, it would also draw people away from their opponents, and embrace the cause of giving Africans more rights.

1. Which of these documents inspired the "unalienable rights" outlined in the Declaration of Independence? (1 point)

Vikki [24]

Thomas Hobbes's Leviathan inspired the "Unalienable rights" outlined in the Declaration of Independence.

Thomas Hobbes's Leviathan or the Matter Forme and Power of a Commonwealth Ecclesiastical and Civil, written in 1651, became one of the most influential written masterpieces on politics and philosophy in the history of humankind. His ideas about the fundamental rights of individuals and the need of a Social Contract (laws and regulations) for a society to thrive were deeply influential in the writing of the Declaration of independence as well of the Constitution.

It is interesting to note that not all of Hobbes's beliefs were agreed upon by the Founding Fathers, for example, his belief in government with absolute power over individuals. Nevertheless, his ideas were complemented along with John Locke's ideas regarding unalienable rights (Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness) and limited government.

Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes was referring to an individual's right to freedom in relation to others when he said: "The right to swing my fist ends where the other man’s nose begins.”

This quote refers to the fact that we are, of course, free as individuals within our social structure, but we must not forget that this doesn't give us the right to damage the other or threaten their liberty. This is known as the demarcation of liberties.
