Correct Creating the Environmental Protection Agency

Explanation/detail:

Based on answer choices I've seen elsewhere, the other options were foreign policy initiatives -- the formal recognition of China and Strategic Arms Limitations Talks (SALT). There was also a decoy answer about reducing interest rates, but that wasn't a successful policy initiative on Nixon's part. During the Nixon presidency, the Federal Reserve chairman, Arthur Burns, had begun raising interest rates. In 1971, President Nixon exerted pressure on Burns and "the Fed" to keep interest rates down, but that only led to a decade of high inflation that caused other economic problems. So that was not a success for Nixon.

About the Environmental Protection Agency

President Nixon signed an executive order establishing the Environmental Protection Agency in 1970. Subsequent committee hearings in the House of Representatives and the Senate ratified Nixon's order for the creation of the agency.

Environmental issues had been gaining much attention during the 1960s, and the need for oversight became clear. As Lily Rothman reported in a TIME magazine article:

An oil spill off the California coast in 1969 coated 400 square miles with slime and killed hundreds of birds. Scientists announced that auto exhaust was at high enough levels in some places that it could cause birth defects. The city of St. Louis smelled, as one resident put it, “like an old-fashioned drugstore on fire.”

Nixon's administration felt it necessary to take action to address pollution problems in the American environment.

the neutrality acts were passed by the united states congress in the 1930s, in response to the growing turmoil in europe and asia that eventually led to world war ii. they were spurred by the growth in isolationism and non-interventionism in the us following its costly involvement in world war i, and sought to ensure that the us would not become entangled again in foreign conflicts.

the legacy of the neutrality acts is widely regarded as having been generally negative: they made no distinction between aggressor and victim, treating both equally as "belligerents"; and they limited the us government's ability to aid britain and france against nazi germany. the acts were largely repealed in 1941, in the face of german submarine attacks on u.s. vessels and the japanese attack on pearl harbor.
