Answer 1

Answer:

A policy I would like my community to adopt is going green, obviously, you can't force every single person to not use any plastic because this is virtually impossible but what I can do is stop the usage of plastic bags. Plastic bags and plastic in general, is very bad and harmful for our planet. The usage of plastic contributes to the drastic climate change we are facing today. And with keeping in mind we cant stop the manufacturing of plastic objects across the world let alone the nation because it can harm the economy very much and create a shortage in supplies that don't yet have an alternate to plastic, but we do have re-usable bags which are very common and easy to make. I suggest in every grocery store exchange plastic bags with reusable ones. But I do acknowledge the fact these cost money and although they are only a few cents it can put a small business at a loss. My solution to this is to have the bags cost less than $1 and give customers a discount for buying it and bringing it back. this way people are more motivated to buy one, although re-usable bags are a little thing, remember little things can go a long way.

Answer 2

Answer:

Consider two businesses, Company A and Company B:

Company A buys a tract of forest and meadow next to a wildlife protection area, cuts down all the trees, and covers most of the land with parking lots. It builds - with tax breaks given by the community to encourage it to settle there - a large factory that belches smoke into the sky and flushes chemicals into the river that flows through the protected land next door.

Many local people apply for the high-paying jobs the factory offers, but few are hired; Company A has brought most of its former workforce with it, driving up local housing prices and flooding the schools with new students. Suddenly taxes and prices rise, and new houses are going up on much of the open land that has made the community a pleasant place to live.

As if that weren't enough, the company refuses to join the local United Way, explaining that its parent company contributes to charity through its own foundation. When local organizations inquire about funding from the foundation, Company A representatives tell them that it only gives money to large, established charities.

Company B buys a similar, but larger, tract of land...and immediately sets aside half of it as a conservation area, which it invites the community to use. Rather than building a new plant, it has decided that the old factory on the edge of its new land is just what it needs, and hires local contractors to make over the building. At the company's direction, they install solar panels, double-paned windows that will reduce lighting costs and provide solar heat in winter, low-flow faucets, a water-recirculation system, and other "green" features. The plant, when it is finished, will be highly energy-efficient, and will, according to the company, put nothing into the environment that's harmful to people, wildlife, plants, or water quality.

Company B announces that it plans to hire at least 75% of its workforce from the local community, and to set up a training facility so that local people can learn the skills they need to work at the plant. It will also feature an on-site day care center for employees, as well as a generous medical and dental plan. Its executives volunteer for various organizations and boards. It funds half the cost of the construction of a new science center at the high school. It joins United Way and becomes active in its fundraising. And it explains that all of this is the policy of Company B's parent corporation, which believes in giving back to communities where it earns its money.

Which business's policies are more community-friendly? These examples are both extremes, of course. There are companies as callous as Company A, but not a huge number, and there are probably even fewer as community-spirited as Company B and its parent corporation. The contrast, however, serves to illustrate the difference between community-friendly and non-community-friendly business policies.

This section is about the social, health, economic, and environmental policies that business and government can adopt to improve community life, foster community development, and create healthy communities...and how community builders can persuade them to do so.

In the academies should be taught the Latin, Greek, French and English languages, the higher rules of arithmetic, the six first books of Euclid’s elements, Algebra, Geography, the elements of Astronomy, taught with the use of the Globes, ancient and modern history. The basis of a good education is classical and mathematical knowledge; and no young man ought to be admitted into the university without such knowledge.

–Report of Archibald Murphey to the
North Carolina Senate, 1817

According to Murphey, what should academies enable students to do?

Students should be ready to enter the workforce.
Students should be prepared to attend a university.
Students should be able to help their parents run the family farm.
Students should have gained the training to become teachers.

Answers

Answer:

For the first part of the nineteenth century, the North Carolina legislature did not officially consider the subject of public education. Various governors urged the legislature to take up the issue, but with no success.

In 1815 a joint committee on education was formed, with members of the two houses of the General Assembly. That committee, led by Senator Archibald Murphey of Orange County, produced two reports, in 1816 and 1817. The second report laid out a complete plan for public education. A statewide commission would oversee the schools. Schools would be built and teachers paid with a combination of state and local funds. Three levels were proposed: primary schools, like present-day elementary schools; academies, like today’s middle or high schools; and the University of North Carolina.

Soon after the committee read its report, on December 16, 1817, Murphey introduced a bill to put his recommendations into effect. The bill passed its first reading in each house of the Assembly, but a bill had to pass three readings to become law, and it never received another reading. It would be twenty-three years before North Carolina would have a system of free public education.

Compare and contrast Andrew Jackson’s and Henry Clay’s arguments about American Indian removal. Write a paragraph explaining each man’s opinion on this issue. Use evidence from the documents to support your conclusions. Access the documents here.

Answers

Answer:

[A speedy removal] will relieve the whole State of Mississippi and the western part of Alabama of Indian occupancy, and enable those States to advance rapidly in population, wealth, and power. It will separate the Indians from immediate contact with settlements of whites; free them from the power of the States; enable them to pursue happiness in their own way and under their own rude institutions; will [slow down] the progress of decay, which is lessening their numbers, and perhaps cause them gradually, under the protection of the Government and through the influence of good counsels, to cast off their savage habits and become an interesting, civilized, and Christian community. . . . The consequences of a speedy removal will be important to the United States, to individual States, and to the Indians themselves. . . . It will place a dense and civilized population in large tracts of country now occupied by a few savage hunters.

–President Andrew Jackson, 1830

Explanation:

In 1830 Henry Clay, one of the most prominent members of the House of Representatives, spoke out against American Indian removal. In this speech, he quotes from an 1814 statement by the US government that says American Indians have a legal right to their lands and are not subject to US laws. The United States stand charged with the fate of those poor children of the woods, in the face of their common Maker, and in presence of the world. And as certain as the guardian is answerable for the education of his infant [child], and the management of his estate, will they be responsible here and hereafter. . . . “The Indians [living] within the United States are so far independent that they live under their own customs, and not under the laws of the United States; that their rights upon the lands where they inhabit or hunt are secured to them by boundaries defined in [friendly] treaties between the United States and themselves; and that whenever those boundaries [are changed, they will] receive from the United States ample [payment] for . . . the land ceded by them.”

Thomas Jefferson wrote the original draft of the Declaration of Independence. Hence, option C is appropriate.

What is the Declaration of Independence?

The Second Continental Congress, which met in Pennsylvania State House in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on July 4, 1776, adopted a proclamation and foundational text known as The United States Declaration of Independence, officially The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen United States of America.

These three key concepts were included in the Declaration of Independence: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness are among the Unalienable Rights that all people possess. Men have inherent equality. People have a civic obligation to protect these rights for other people as well as for themselves.

On July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress approved this same Declaration of Independence, which the 13 American colonies used to dissolve their political ties to Great Britain. The Declaration enumerated the reasons why the colonies wanted independence.        

Hence, option C is correct.

Answer/Explanation:

Dear Commander Lieutenant Major Reginald Brighton:

As you know the confederation has its constitution and this constitution has many articles. The present missive is to inform you what is happening in the United States with respect of this constitution.

The main article of this constitution states that the president is elected by popular vote and gives the congress many attributions. The congress has to approve the nation's budget and they just have spend the money that the country has. I think the best thing  of this people is that they have power balance and leaders that make many good things for their nation.

The strengths of this nation are many. For example it  has a good Army because the congress has bought many good weapons and also it has passed good bills in favor of the people, for example: this country has good hospitals and medicine for everybody. The weaknesses of this new government are many  but I think the worst thing can be that there is not so much Freedom of Speech. The ones that talk about the congress are immediately put under investigation.

People have reacted in different ways to the government, but I think people are started to get tired of the situation of not having the liberty of saying what they really want.

I will inform you more about this nation in my following missives.

Expressing my feelings of the highest esteem, I respectfully say good bye,
