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.

How did the black power movement impact the fight for civil rights apex?
Law Incorporation [45]
Created cultural pride but lost white support.

Black Power encouraged the development and pride in black culture. It encouraged blacks to work together and suggested blacks should not have to bend to white rules to be considered equals in society. 

The cultural empowerment of blacks caused many whites to distance themselves from the movement. Opposition grew toward the movement as whites could longer control and influence the direction of the movement. Many members of black power groups were targeted by the FBI and the government during the 1960s.

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:n October 1, 1949, Chinese Communist leader Mao Zedong declared the creation of the People’s Republic of China (PRC). The announcement ended the costly full-scale civil war between the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the Nationalist Party, or Kuomintang (KMT), which broke out immediately following World War II and had been preceded by on and off conflict between the two sides since the 1920’s. The creation of the PRC also completed the long process of governmental upheaval in China begun by the Chinese Revolution of 1911. The “fall” of mainland China to communism in 1949 led the United States to suspend diplomatic ties with the PRC for decades.
