The correct answer is - B. Westerlies move warmer air toward the poles.

The Westerlies are winds that move from the lower latitudes (thus from the warmer areas) towards the bigger latitudes (south and north towards the poles). These winds move in a westward manner, and are the dominant winds between the latitudes of 30° and 60°. They have a global climatic effect. In the latitudes where they are the dominant winds, actually lives the biggest portion of the human population, which just proves there effect on the global climate, and we can comfortably state that it is a positive influence, at least for the human population.

The feelings of the indigenous people tend to vary a lot about this topic.

Some of the indigenous people are very hostile to any foreigners in their land, so they would not hesitate to attack, and even in some cases kill.

There are some that feel it as an usurpation of their daily lives, and do not see the tourists very fondly, but are not making any real problems, just avoiding contact.

And there are some indigenous people that actually saw a nice opportunity to modernize and make a profit of the tourists, so they are using their survival skills in the wild in their advantage, and they are very welcoming towards the tourists and encourage them to come.
