Answer:

In simple words, Houston is called energy capital of the world because so much of the energy is produced in the city for all the country. However, due to rising pollution in the city, the Mayor wanted to start a campaign under which the city is to be termed as Energy Conservation Capital of the World.

   The meaning of the second term relates to the intention of the mayor in which she wanted to enhance the image of the city along with its standard of living. The conservative word depicts the responsibility of the citizens to use this important resource carefully.

What does an army sacrifice when it commits to the protection provided by a trench
stellarik [79]
<span>The answer is mobility. Trench warfare was popular at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century, Trenches, essentially large ditches men dug, and then took up defensive positions in, were very good at giving soldiers a place to hide from incoming automatic weapons fire and mortar strikes. This however gave birth to "trench warfare", a style of combat relying on melee combat, short range weapons like shotguns, and worst of all, penetrating attacks the trenches couldn't protect from, such as shrapnel heavy grenades, flamethrowers, or even chemical weapon attacks. Trench warfare was also terrible as the living conditions in the trenches often involved standing water, disease, and malnutrition.</span>

From your knowledge of Global Studies, how did the areas settled by the Greeks differ from the early settlements of the Fertile
romanna [79]

<em>These areas were geographically different. The Nile River Valley was very fertile and had been exploited prior to the Greeks by the Egyptians. The Indus River Valley was fertile but was Indian territory. This was quickly given back to the Indians. Ancient China was Chinese and the Greeks did not settle there. </em>


<em>Climate was the third important environmental influence on Greek civilization. Greece has a varied climate with temperatures averaging 48 degrees Fahrenheit in the winter and 80 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer. In ancient times, these moderate temperatures supported an outdoor life for many Greek citizens. Men spent much of their leisure time at outdoor public events. They met often to discuss public issues, exchange news, and take an active part in civic life. </em>

<em>Hope this helps a little. :) </em>
