One of the values of the sort of approach to culture in the world system made possible by practice theory and related developments in anthropology is that it allows us to recognize peoples like the contemporary Kayapo or the Kwakwaka’wakw as:
Indigenous Modernities
Billiard Ball Polities
Isolated Villagers
Disappearing Worlds
Our contemporary ancestors
According to David Miliband, most of the world’s refugees reside
In western countries.
In Asia.
In the poorest parts of the world.
All of the above.
None of the above.
According to the documentary, “A Burning Question,” the Montreal Protocol is a success story of environmental action because:
It confirmed that there is no such thing as the ozone layer ((the layer of the stratosphere that absorbs most the ultraviolet radiation from the sun to the earth, thus preventing the earth from getting too warm)
It confirmed that the ozone layer was not being threatened.
It banned the manufacture and distribution of CFC’s (chlorofluorocarbons) which were damaging the ozone layer.
All of the above.
None of the above.

Kayapo or the Kwakwaka’wakw are the people who live a tribal lifestyle and still dependent on fishing and hunting and have largely consrved their culture which is unison with the nature. These type of tribes still exist in some parts of the world and some of such tribes are still not in contact with the modern world.
2) According to David Miliband, most of the world’s refugees
reside
In the poorest parts of the world.
David Miliband mentioned that the top 10 countries which are hosting refugees are Lebanon, Jordan, Kenya, Ethiopia, and Bangladesh. He also included Myanmar in that list because of recent Rohingya crisis. According to David Miliband, these countries account for only 2.5% global income and it could be inferred that these are very poor countries.

Montreal Protocol is a success story of environmental action
because:
It banned the manufacture and distribution of CFC’s
(chlorofluorocarbons) which were damaging the ozone layer.
The Montreal Protocol in 1987 acknowledged the threat to the ozone layer which blocks the harmful ultraviolet rays and decided to phase out the use of Ozone Depleting Substances such as CFC or chlorofluorocarbons.
