The correct answer is D. Environmental issues following a natural disaster

Explanation:

In writing, including fictional and non-fictional texts it is common the author explores multiple themes, which are ideas or beliefs related to the content of the text the author wants to convey to the audience, although they might not be explicitly stated, because of this themes are often referred as underlying ideas and are usually linked to aspects of human life. Because of this, it is common texts that have similar content share common themes.

For example, in the case presented a text related to the Hurricane Katrina and one of the 9/11 might share common themes as they both were situations that had a great impact in the U.S., implied a situation of danger and required from  strategies to respond to the emergency. However, Hurricane Katrina was a natural disaster and the 9/11 was not, and therefore themes related to this aspect might be different in these texts. Considering this, the theme tath you could find in Hurricane Katrina but not in a text responding to 9/11 is "environmental issues following a natural disaster".

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
