EIR REPORT

ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE

Comis is suddenly filled with tourists. The owner of the island decides to construct a hotel

where The Ferven Rainforest is. To do so, he has to cut down all the trees.

IMPACT ON SPECIES:

The Bellus Fern: They are extinct in this area as they cannot survive without the trees.

The Clarus Frog: They are endangered as they have nowhere to live. They usually lived

in the holes of trees.

The Ferrus Jaguar: They are endangered as its food sources are not plentiful.

The Lentus Earthworm: There are no expected changes. They have plenty to eat and

they can still inhabit the soil.

PREVENTION

Seeing as this is his island, he can do whatever he wants with the land. But maybe he can

compromise and build his hotel in a less populated area.
