While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:

* In 1978, Sami activists staged protests to block the construction of a dam on the Alta River in Norway.
* The dam would disrupt Sami fishing and reindeer herding.
* The dam was ultimately built, but the Alta conflict had a lasting impact.
* It brought international attention to the issue of Sami rights.
* It led to a set of 2005 legal protections establishing Sami rights to lands, waters, and resources.

The student wants to make and support a generalization about the Alta conflict. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal?
