Social Studies

Alisiya [41]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The Ship of State is a famous and oft-cited metaphor put forth by Plato in Book VI of the Republic (488a–489d). It likens the governance of a city-state to the command of a naval vessel and ultimately argues that the only people fit to be captain of this ship (Greek) are philosopher kings, benevolent men with absolute power who have access to the Form of the Good. The origins of the metaphor can be traced back to the lyric poet , and it is found in Sophocles' Antigone and Aeschylus' Seven Against Thebes before Plato.

Which is most negatively affected by erosion, climate change, and acid rain?
murzikaleks [220]

The correct answer is:

-> Habitants


Erosion and acid rain, even though they are a  natural phenomena, they has intensified more with climate change and global warming. This directly affects people's lives in many ways. Cultures are little affected when they need to change habits in order to adapt to it.

Because of the big industries (business), with all their emission of gases, there have been all these natural events and eventually global warming. Municipalities are often affected when they do not have enough infrastructure to withstand the floods of many rains. In the end, those who suffer most are the citizens living in these cities
