Explanation:

Guidelines:
Review the steps in the policymaking process.
Come up with a policy position that you would like to take.
Explain your policy problem and the policy approach that you propose to fix your problem.
Evaluate a classmate's policy problem and suggest an alternate policy solution that might also solve their problem. If you are in the class by yourself, your teacher will propose a policy solution that you can critique.
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:
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.

The __________________________________ system that used slaves a manual labor would become deeply entrenched in Mississippi during the 1830s.
Answer:
The plantation system
Answer:
The Plantation System
Explanation:
The plantation system developed in the American South as the British colonists arrived in Virginia and divided the land into large areas suitable for farming. Because the economy of the South depended on the cultivation of crops, the need for agricultural labor led to the establishment of slavery.
Though Daoism does not have a strict belief structure, the idea of yin and yang is central to all Daoist thinkers. Daoism embraced an ancient Chinese belief in balance, and the concepts of yin and yang represent the balancing aspects of nature. These include the differences between light and dark, hot and cold, and male and female. The idea of balance has been a key concept of Chinese culture for centuries, which is largely due to Daoist teachings.

A.
Daoists encouraged the conquest of neighboring peoples in Japan.

Many of the immigrants who came to North Carolina during the gold rush were single men—young or middle-aged, ambitious, and hardworking. Unaccompanied by women or children, they were able to move freely from one mining area to another. When gold was found in other southern states and then in California in 1848, many moved out of the area. The Cornish miners, however, had often moved with their families. They were known to be “skilled, superstitious, clannish,” and strongly Methodist. Unlike the single prospectors who followed the gold to California, the Yukon, and beyond, many of these Cornish miners and their families stayed in North Carolina, in the lode mining centers of Charlotte and especially Gold Hill in Rowan County.
–“The North Carolina Gold Rush,”
Rebecca Lewis
How did Cornish miners differ from other miners who came to North Carolina?
Most Cornish miners were single men who did not have families.
Most Cornish miners left North Carolina when the California gold rush began.
Most Cornish miners settled in North Carolina permanently and made a home in the state.
Most Cornish miners were unskilled workers with little experience in mining.
The answer is C.) Most Cornish miners settled in North Carolina permanently and made a home in the state.

PLS HELP Colonial America was a multicultural society of people from many different ethnic backgrounds, including American Indians, Africans, and Europeans of many nationalities. How did the colonists deal with these differences? How were different groups treated? What kind of ideas do you think help different groups get along? What kind of ideas may hurt them? (I WILL GIVE YOU A THANK AND BRAINIEST DO NOT COPY OTHER PEOPLES WORK!!!!)
Answer: I think the American Indians, Africans, and Europeans were treated badly because of their race. They dealt with these differences by having a war to settle the differences they had between each other. It would've been good if they had gotten along because the Indians had many good ideas, but they didn't get along because they had different ideas and argued.
Explanation:
Answer:
Society and culture in colonial America varied widely among ethnic and social groups, and from colony to colony, but was mostly centered around agriculture as it was the primary venture in most regions. While New England had small family farms, the southern colonies had large plantations that required slave labor. Religion also played a major role in shaping some local cultures; many people who colonized North America were fleeing religious persecution in their home country and implemented strict religious-based rules in the colonies where they settled.
Colonists dealt with African's and American Indians really badly. Africans in colonial America held very little social or political power, their contributions not only supported the Southern colonies but led to their eventual prosperity. However, the Africans' status in the United States slowly deteriorated over the course of the century, as colonies slowly added laws to permit slavery and restrict the rights of Africans. While slavery existed in every colony at one time or another, it was the economic structure of farming in the South that depended on slave labor to prosper. As enslaved people became more and more in demand in the South, the slave trade that spanned from Africa to the colonies became a source of economic wealth as well. Working long hours, living in crude conditions, and suffering abuses from their owners, African captives faced harsh conditions in colonial America. None of the colonies outlawed slavery prior to the Revolutionary War.
During the colonial period, Native Americans had a complicated relationship with European settlers. They resisted the efforts of the Europeans to gain more of their land and control through both warfare and diplomacy. But problems arose for the Native Americans, which held them back from their goal, including new diseases, the slave trade, and the ever-growing European population in North America. as European nations scrambled to claim the already occupied land in the “New World,” some leaders formed alliances with Native American nations to fight foreign powers. Some famous alliances were formed during the French and Indian War of 1754–1763. Native Americans were also vulnerable during the colonial era because they had never been exposed to European diseases, like smallpox, so they didn’t have any immunity to the disease, as some Europeans did. The illnesses decimated the Native Americans—by some estimates killing as much as 90 percent of their population. With the population sick and decreasing, it became more and more difficult to mount an opposition to European expansion. Another aspect of the colonial era that made the Native Americans vulnerable was the slave trade. Native Americans allied with the losing side were often indentured or enslaved. Native Americans would only get worse in the 19th century, leading to greater confinement and the extermination of native people. Unfortunately, the colonial era was neither the start nor the end of the long, dark history of the treatment of Native Americans by Europeans.
The majority of colonists were Europeans so in Colonial America Europeans were treated the best as they were much of the population, they also had rule over Africans and Native Americans.
The groups most of the time did not get along because they all had different ideas and because Native Americans Believed their land was stolen from them. But an idea that hurt them was enslaving people of color, this started fights against the people of color and the Europeans. In the end, the Europeans had full control over them
