Question

A land developer, Sandy Burns, is planning to build a very large housing development near a lake that is used for fishing and swimming. Write a letter to the land developer describing what problems could occur in the lake. In your letter, describe how this human interaction has altered habitats negatively. Make a suggestion for how this problem could be alleviated or fixed. Your letter should include 3 paragraphs (an introduction, body, and a conclusion).

Answer 1

Dear, Sandy Burns

I feel strongly about your decision to build your housing development near this lake. doing this could effect the wildlife and even the people and children who come to swim here. We have already shown as humans that we don't have enough respect for wild life on its own.

Building these houses could not only endanger the wildlife with the fact that there will be more pollution in the area due to construction and people moving in, but also the population your bringing to the area. The lake is a controlled environment and people already Fish in it as is. Building this complex will bring in more people who may want to fish, causing many fish in that lake not be able to reproduce quickly enough. The construction on its own will scare away other animals that use this lake for hydration or meals.

In conclusion you shouldn't build this complex near the lake. I think your idea is wonderful just not for near the lake.It would be too harmful to the animals and environment around it.

Sincerely,

*your name*
