Answer 2

Bias is the favoring of one person or point of view. Option C is correct.

What is Bias?

Bias is a predisposition to prefer one person or thing to another, and to favor that person or item. Information bias, selection bias, and confounding are the three broad categories of bias that can be distinguished.

There is a lack of objectivity in the way we view things. Both purposeful and inadvertent biases are possible. Biasedness depends on situation to situation and moves forward from person to person. In any individual or group or nation can be biased thing can be made on any topic. This is independent choice of any person.

For example when given an option to a person to choose a shirt he might prefer one shirt over two others because of their favorite color or any other biased choice.

Thus Bias is the favoring of one person or point of view.

In one or two paragraphs, summarize the problem of deforestation that Brazil faces and propose a possible solution to the problem.

Answers

Answer: While national efforts to reduce global warming emissions in the United States have flagged, one tropical developing nation, Brazil, has made dramatic strides—without receiving much attention for its success. Detailed analyses of publicly available satellite photos show that Brazil has reduced deforestation in the Amazon enough over the past five years to lower heat-trapping emissions more than any other country on Earth. This success demonstrates the enormous potential of reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation as well as conserving and re-growing tropical forests (the international effort known as REDD+).REDD+ was proposed by developing countries in 2005 as an international strategy by which tropical countries would reduce deforestation (which is responsible for about 10 percent of all global warming pollution) and be compensated by wealthy nations for any resulting economic losses. Two of the strongest initial supporters of the concept were Norway, which pledged $2.5 billion for the effort, and Brazil, which announced a national plan to reduce its deforestation rate 80 percent by 2020 (compared with its average rate over the decade 1996–2005) and later made this commitment part of its national law.

Between 2005 and 2010, Brazil nearly met its goal—a full decade ahead of schedule. Data from 2009–2010 showed that Brazil’s area of deforestation, which averaged 19,508 square kilometers (km2) per year during the baseline decade of 1996–2005, had dropped 67 percent, to just 6,451 km2. UCS analysis of this change, using a formula for converting deforested area to CO2 emissions based on the work of the research institute IMAZON, estimated a reduction in Brazil’s global warming pollution of nearly 1 billion tons.

Norway has committed $1 billion to compensate Brazil for its emissions reductions; the first payment of $110 million was made in 2009. And unlike the case with “offset” funding (whereby corporations in industrialized nations pay for emissions reductions in tropical countries and, in exchange, are permitted to emit more heat-trapping gases in their own countries), there will be no corresponding increase in Norway’s emissions as a result of its commitment to Brazil.

Thus, the cooperation of these two countries has already achieved a reduction in global warming pollution comparable to the reductions that both the United States and the European Union have only pledged to achieve by 2020. This means it is no longer necessary to talk about REDD+ as a proposal or a set of future actions—we can now see how REDD+ works, and that it can be remarkably successful.

What is even more impressive is that Brazil has achieved this success while simultaneously increasing agricultural production and significantly reducing hunger and poverty. During the last decade the country has enjoyed a high rate of GDP growth and exported large amounts of beef and soy despite the world recession. Moreover, through social programs such as Fome Zero (Zero Hunger) and Bolsa Familia (Family Allowances), Brazil has lifted more than 10 million of its citizens out of poverty and substantially lowered rates of hunger and malnutrition.

How it was done

Brazil’s dramatic reduction in deforestation is the result of several different efforts. First, at both state and federal levels, the country greatly expanded its network of indigenous reserves and protected areas (including sustainable-use reserves), which now encompass more than half of Brazil’s Amazon forest. Just as important, these reserves have been effectively protected. Indigenous peoples now control 20 percent of the Brazilian Amazon, and their collective land tenure rights have been reinforced by official titles and the support of the state in stopping illegal encroachment by non-indigenous ranchers, farmers, and miners. Strong enforcement of logging laws, including seizures of illegal timber, closing of illegal sawmills, and jailing of the perpetrators (including government officials who had been taking bribes to look the other way), has shown that the government’s commitment to stopping deforestation is real.

Brazil’s citizens played a critical role in pushing their government to go further and in exerting pressure for change on the businesses that are the main agents of deforestation. The Zero Deforestation campaign, for example, which was launched in 2008 by a broad coalition of environmental, indigenous, rubber-tapper, human rights, and other non-governmental organizations (NGOs), played an important role in pushing the federal government to act. In 2006 and 2009, Brazilian NGOs also conducted widely publicized exposés of the role the soybean and beef industries have played in deforesting the Amazon; the resulting publicity led to commitments from those industries not to sell products raised on deforested land.

Monthly Medicare (1.45%): $?
Monthly State Tax (4%): $?
Monthly Local Tax (0.1%): $?
Total Monthly deductions $?
Trey’s NMI $?

Answers

Answer:

Gross monthly income:$1,125

Monthly Federal income tax (11.6%): $130.50

Monthly Social security (FICA) (6.2%): $69.75

Monthly Medicare (1.45%): $16.3125

Monthly State Tax (4%): $45

Monthly Local Tax (0.1%): $1.125

Total Monthly deductions $262.6875

Trey’s NMI $862.3125

Explanation:

Calculation for What is his monthly taxes

First step is to calculate the Gross monthly income

Using this formula

Gross monthly income=Annual salary/Numbers of months in a year

Let plug in the formula

Gross monthly income=$13,500/12 months

Gross monthly income=$1,125

Therefore the Gross monthly income is :$1,125

Monthly Federal income tax (11.6%): $130.50

($1,125*11.6%)

Monthly Social security (FICA) (6.2%): $69.75

($1,125*6.2%)

Monthly Medicare (1.45%): $16.3125

($1,125*1.45%)

Monthly State Tax (4%): $45

($1,125*4%)

Monthly Local Tax (0.1%): $1.125

($1,125*0.1%)

Total Monthly deductions $262.6875

($130.50+$69.75+$16.3125+$45+$1.125)

Trey’s NMI $862.3125

Trey’s NMI=Gross monthly income-Total Monthly deductions

Trey’s NMI=$1,125-$262.6875

Trey’s NMI=$862.3125

Therefore his monthly taxes are:

Gross monthly income:$1,125

Monthly Federal income tax (11.6%): $130.50

Monthly Social security (FICA) (6.2%): $69.75

Monthly Medicare (1.45%): $16.3125

Monthly State Tax (4%): $45

Monthly Local Tax (0.1%): $1.125

Total Monthly deductions $262.6875

Trey’s NMI $862.3125
