Which of the following caused plantation owners to start using more slaves and few indentured servants?

hram777 [196]

Answer:

B. The price of indentured servants increased because the trip to America became more expensive.

Explanation:

"Indentured servitude" is different from "slavery." Indentured servitude refers to providing service or work without pay through a contract. The indentured servant signs a contract that he will be giving his service to his master as a form of payment for his transportation to immigrate to a place, a debt bondage and other similar obligations. Although they were not paid, they were given a place to stay and food to eat.

This was the case before, however, conditions changed when America and Britain passed laws in order to help the indenture service decline. An example of this is the "Passenger's Vessels Act 1803" by the UK Parliament. This made the transportation more expensive (specifically, in North America) thus, it became a problem for landlord's who were seeking to attain indentured service.

So, this explains the answer.

A major obstacle to creating policies that address the issue of global warming is the conflict between

GenaCL600 [577]

The conflict between environmental groups and concerned citizens on the one hand and the promoters of fossil fuel unbridled use on the other which is not resolved and having national governments that just are spokesmen for the big multinational oil corporations and don't listen to their citizens is part of the problem. Also, major cities are implementing green policies in a big way which is bringing them into contradiction with federal governments which are dragging their feet on measures to protect the environment and cut greenhouse gases.
