Task: Story Composition
Input (English): Background Paragraph: Sand mining is a direct cause of erosion, and impacts the local wildlife.[2] Various animals depend on sandy beaches for nesting clutches, and mining has led to the near extinction of gharials (a species of crocodile) in India. Disturbance of underwater and coastal sand causes turbidity in the water, which is harmful for organisms like coral that need sunlight. It can also destroy fisheries, financially harming their operators.

Removal of physical coastal barriers, such as dunes, sometimes leads to flooding of beachside communities, and the destruction of picturesque beaches causes tourism to dissipate. Sand mining is regulated by law in many places, but is often done illegally.[3] Globally, it is a $70 billion industry, with sand selling at up to $90 per cubic yard.[4].
Output (English): Two cities located at the sea shore between sand dunes, took 2 different approaches to their economic stability and sources of income for their inhabitants. Dune city was mainly focused on raising animals fishing and tourism, while Gulf city started sand mining operations because of the good prices they received per cubic yard of sand.
