Answer: a. The national government instituted regulations to handle environmental issues.

The 1960s and 1970s were a period of increased awareness about environmental issues among the population. One of the catalysts was the book <em>Silent Spring</em> (1962) by Rachel Carson. The book discussed the negative effects of pesticides, in particular DDT, on wildlife. The 1969 Santa Barbara oil spill also generated public outrage. As a result, many regulations were passed in order to protect the environment. Moreover, those that already existed were reviewed and rewritten to make them more comprehensive.

Why did Western countries hope to influence governments in the Middle East during the early 20th century?
marysya [2.9K]

The correct answer is B) to ensure that Middle Eastern leaders would continue supplying them with oil.

<em>Western countries hoped to influence governments in the Middle East during the early 20th century to ensure that Middle Eastern leaders would continue supplying them with oil.</em>

Oil is abundant in the Middle East. For some countries, is the only thing that they produce and can export to generate an income. Oil has also been the reason for many conflicts in the region. Let's just remember the War of the Persin Gulf, when Irak invaded Kuwait and the United States troops had to intervene. So for oil reasons, many Western countries hoped to influence governments in the Middle East during the early 20th century to ensure that Middle Eastern leaders would continue supplying them with oil. The economic interests in the region are one of the most important foreign issues for Western countries such as the U.S.
