Impact
The environmental issue is how the Brown Tree Snakes are making native species extinct. This can affect the local, regional and global scale in multiple ways. This problem affects the local level because the snakes eat the species on the island weakening and eventually change the ecosystem and cause power outages for residents on Guam. This problem also affects them on a regional level because in the future the snakes might spread to other regional island and also weaken their ecosystems and damage human structures. This can also affect globally because Guam’s ecosystem contains many native species that are only available there and one those become extinct than.

Future Predictions
With the mice solution working the island of Guam would experience less power outages and endangered native species on Guam such as the Mariana fruit dove or the Guam flycatcher would slowly creep out of the endangered zone with the lack of Brown Tree Snakes. On the other hand if this solution was not in place than the death of Guam's native species will continue dropping until the entire ecosystem is completely changed. Another effect would be that the Brown Tree …show more content…
Multiple people are struggling to live on the snake infested island, these snakes have caused frequent blackouts or electric power outages because of the snakes crawling into transformers and electric boxes, and so the electric costs have exceeded $4.5 per year. These snakes have been eating trees in Guam, and without enough trees, their won't be enough air on the island. There are many ways to help Guam and its snake plague. For example, there are many foundations and charities that you could donate and hopefully raise enough money to do more
