The number of tuskless elephants was multiplying in bozambique during and after the country's decades-long civil war, which ended in 1992. Large-tusked elephants in Gorongosa were killed for their ivory, which was sold to buy arms and ammunition.

Throughout history and into modern times, forests have been razed to make space for agriculture and animal grazing, and to obtain wood for fuel, manufacturing, and construction. Deforestation has greatly altered landscapes around the world. - Landon Ballowe]]> 2022-05-12 12:53:11 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_dee1/odssdkfi3gegfx4u/wish/2181190861 dianamt0311 https://padlet.com/susan_dee1/odssdkfi3gegfx4u/wish/2181192683 Releasing waste into the oceans and harming ecosystems -Diana

We can fix this by recycling everything we can and reusing products as often as possible until we can't anymore.]]> 2022-05-12 12:53:55 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_dee1/odssdkfi3gegfx4u/wish/2181192683 connerjo0609 https://padlet.com/susan_dee1/odssdkfi3gegfx4u/wish/2181193419 We are throwing objects away that can not be recycled, and they take thousands of years to decompose. All of this garbage is collecting in our oceans.

Consumer Solutions - Buying more recyclable objects 
Producer Solutions - The biggest solution is to make goods decompose faster, or have the goods be recyclable.

This causes animals and other plants to die by ingesting these chemicals. If we limit the use of pesticides in agriculture and in our homes, this can limit the effect of the contamination and benefit local wildlife.]]> 2022-05-12 12:55:03 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_dee1/odssdkfi3gegfx4u/wish/2181194639 https://padlet.com/susan_dee1/odssdkfi3gegfx4u/wish/2181196017 Fishing too much damages ocean ecosystems. Placing more limits on fishing could help prevent it. People could also use more sustainable fishing methods to preserve ocean species such as trawling or longlining.

Acid rain also removes minerals and nutrients from the soil that trees need to grow.

This is mainly caused by the burning of fossil fuels. The ocean absorbs excessive carbon dioxide, which causes chemical reactions, making the water more acidic. This kills species in the ocean that are not adapted to such acidic conditions. ]]> 2022-05-12 13:05:17 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_dee1/odssdkfi3gegfx4u/wish/2181212481 https://padlet.com/susan_dee1/odssdkfi3gegfx4u/wish/2181213237 As the population increases the more need for food, space, and causes pollution]]> 2022-05-12 13:05:44 UTC https://padlet.com/susan_dee1/odssdkfi3gegfx4u/wish/2181213237 https://padlet.com/susan_dee1/odssdkfi3gegfx4u/wish/2181217433 tigers are skinned and hunted for sport.
