Answer:
A Black Loyalist was a person of African descent who sided with the Loyalists during the American Revolutionary War. In particular, the term refers to men who escaped the enslavement of Patriot masters and served on the Loyalist side because of the Crown's promises of freedom.
Some 3,000 Black Loyalists were evacuated from New York to Nova Scotia; they were individually listed in the Book of Negroes as the British gave them certificates of freedom and arranged for transport. The Crown gave them land grants and supplies to help them resettle in Nova Scotia. Some of the European Loyalists who emigrated to Nova Scotia brought their slaves with them, making for an uneasy society. One historian has argued that those slaves should not be regarded as Loyalists, as they had no choice in their fates. Other Black Loyalists were evacuated to London or the Caribbean colonies.
Thousands of African slaves escaped from plantations and fled to British lines, especially after British occupation of Charleston, South Carolina. When the British evacuated, they took many former slaves with them. Many ended up among London's Black Poor, with 4,000 resettled by the Sierra Leone Company to Freetown in Africa in 1787. Five years later, another 1,192 Black Loyalists from Nova Scotia chose to emigrate to Sierra Leone, becoming known as the Nova Scotian settlers in the new British colony of Sierra Leone. Both waves of settlers became part of the Sierra Leone Creole people and the founders of the nation of Sierra Leone. Thomas Jefferson referred to the Black Loyalists as "the fugitives from these States". While most Black Loyalists gained freedom, some did not. Those who were recaptured by slave traders were sold back into slavery and treated harshly for having served under the British.

Explanation:
Os impactos ambientais negativos do turismo são substanciais. Eles incluem o esgotamento dos recursos naturais locais, bem como problemas de poluição e resíduos. O turismo muitas vezes pressiona os recursos naturais por meio do consumo excessivo, muitas vezes em lugares onde os recursos já são escassos.
O turismo coloca enorme pressão no uso da terra local e pode levar à erosão do solo, aumento da poluição, perda de habitat natural e mais pressão sobre as espécies ameaçadas de extinção. Esses efeitos podem destruir gradualmente os recursos ambientais dos quais o próprio turismo depende.
Carrying capacity is the theoretical maximum rate of population growth. It is the maximum population size that the environment can sustain. This means that it is the maximum number of individuals of given species that the evironment's resources can sustain. It is the population size that can have enough water, food, habitat and other resources in order to survive and live.
It's plate tectonics, Earthquakes can be cause by ...
Destructive boundaries (where an oceanic plate goes under a continental plate which causes pressure to build up by friction, and when is released, causes an earthquake)
Or Conservative boundaries where 2 plates rub against each other causing pressure to build up and be released as an earthquake.
Volcanos can be made by...
constructive plate boundaries where 2 plates pull away from each other, leaving large cracks in the earth for magma to erupt.
As well as...
Hotspots which are on the plate itself not a boundary.
