So, biodiversity loss is basically loss of the animals on the earth, so loss of life’s diversity. Now, losing wildlife is a big problem, especially to animals on the earth. First, what causes this problem? Read on and you’ll find out. Surprise! We humans create biodiversity loss. We fish, and when we do, we change the ecosystem and the food chains of the river. We also move animals from one place to another.

A nice 'feature' of the car is that all that you'd need to charge the car is a magnetic charging station. So, there wouldn't be any doors or flaps opening/closing, it would be as simple as...

I did a post on this last week! PROS Cheap- Fossil fuels are the cheapest energy source- SEI 2 CONS POLLUTES THE AIR When fossil fuels are used as a source of energy, it releases carbon dioxide contributing to Climate Change. A while ago, Freddy made a Youtube video on Climate Change .
