ENV-Exmoor Problems

.The increasing number . Some problems arise from sheer numbers of people. Too many feet on the same track wear it away; too many cars on narrow roads cause congestion and ill-temper.

.Litter is not only untidy but can be dangerous.  A cigarette can cause a fire which may spread  across the moor, getting rid of  wildlife and habitats.

* Conflicts of land use:
.House price and shop price increase
.Narrow roads become blocked
.not enough parking

*Famers & Tourisis:
Gates ar left open, trespassing occurs, livestock go missing.

*Bird Watchers:
moutain bickers make too much noise so birds fly away.
