Answer:

I do not agree with this approach but it is still important in today's world.

Explanation:

President Theodore Roosevelt's comments that "speak softly and carry a big stick" meant that diplomacy is an important tool but  having the ability or other means to force the opponent into submission is also important for the President as well as the country. The President's role of being a diplomat and a commander in chief provides the President the power to make these decisions as per the situation and requirements. The reason I do not agree with this is because countries who do not have a 'big stick' or a powerful army are pushed around on international stage and are pressured by countries with bigger armies into making decisions that they would not like to make. On the other hand, UN itself needs an army to implement its orders. Still, UN always first implements sanctions and diplomatic tools. Hence, I do not completely agree with this comment but I think it is still relevant in today's world.

How does south America's location over the equator affect its overall climate
olga2289 [7]
The majority of South America lies south of the Equator, which is why it is called South America. The equator line winds (Coriolis effect), which blow daily from east to west, have a significant effect on the climate. These winds carry ocean moisture into the lowlands of the Amazon river. The western mountains (Andes Mountains) obstruct moisture escape and it spins counter-clockwise to the south and east. This moisture is absorbed by the frigid south pole winds, resulting in an abundance of rain in the tropical cyclone.
South America's triangle form is ideal for rains because it permits polar winds (from west to east) to blow in, sometimes up to the equator line or near to it, carrying more south ocean moisture into the continent and generating showers.
Another significant component affecting climate is the South Atlantic high pressure, although that is a separate subject.
