Alan Weisman on his book "The world without us" provides us an overview on how we - humans - are having a highly negative effect on nature. At the beginning of chapter 1 he contrasts the power of humans to that of the nature making reference to an old forest located between Poland and Belarus which is more vulnerable day after day. This reality has increased since the democracy and independance instauration which makes us infer that the more advances we have in society, the less care human pay to nature.

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Signal from the Colonists

Explanation:

In John White's narrative of the 1590 voyage to Virginia , before they could get to the place where they left planters, it was dark and they overshot the place by a quarter mile.

On getting to the North end of the Island, they saw the great fire. They rowed towards the fire and called out sounding trumpets in the hope that it was the colonists.

However, it was probably a fire started by lightning as the colonists were not there.
