Conclusion: 

In conclusion, I have found out that we need to find more ways to gather valuable resources for our vehicles.  I think this because it is helping us but not the environment it may sound like nothing at the moment but in the future generations, it will get worse so we need to change now.  This is what I think thank you and bye.
