Dear City Council of Glammerville:
I am contacting you concerning matters of reestablishing harmony to the city's ecosystem. An ecosystem is a community of living organisms in conjunction with the nonliving components of their environment (things like air, water and mineral soil), interacting as a system. The imbalance within the ecosystem in Sparksville's oceanic framework is the current circumstance. The limits of this ecosystem are being tended to for reasons doing with the objective of restoring the lake back to ordinary. Grass Corp has invaded underwater life and is now threatening existence.
The adjustments in the ecosystem, in the lake have affected all segments of living for the group and life submerged inside of the lake. Bass fish are at an unequaled low for the group. The resources of Bass fish are small to the point that the city can't hold the yearly Bass Competition, leaving the city bankrupt of assets that help the economy. Grass Carp are known as an intrusive species meaning it is a non-local animal. The Carp made its first appearance when the city chose to utilize an eco-friendly manure to help with the products. The plants started to become more beneficial; be that as it may, the Grass Carp started to go to the Lake and take it over and out-contending the local species. The local species are generally more forceful in their race to get satisfactory resources for support. Grass Carp does not need to have barriers against predators in light of the fact that there is no predator that can hurt them, and the lake does not contain illnesses that can influence their survival.
The survival of the bass fish is endangered and the ecosystem is being affected by this invasive species. Because the soil chemistry is hanging, erosion is being created. Plants can likewise change the soil chemistry, which contributes to the erosion, causing plants to outgrow native plants. The leaves of the new plants can contain chemicals that add to the environment issue in the lake. If animals eat from harmful crops, humans will eventually be affected because humans eat animals. This carp issue poses a true problem to the entire ecosystem. Remember it is not the plan of the obtrusive species to be intrusive.
