Sea Wheel Automobiles Company

Dear Mr. Buffet,

This is the new Sea Wheels Automobiles Company, and we would like to inform you that this company is going to help the future of our environment become a better future. Our planet is in danger today because of pollution. One of the major polluters are automobiles. Therefore, the SWA decided to create a company that will help reduce vehicle combustion. We did this by creating a very special car

that works with hydroelectric energy. This vehicle has wheels to go on the road as well as skies to go on water. This means our company created a 2 in 1 vehicle that will not only try to replace vehicles but also boats. We will try to give an opportunity to wealthy countries to try our car and then we will see its affect on the environment.

Now that I am a millionaire I will try to make a special change in the environment. I will change the lives of humans by adding this special vehicle in their daily lives. I will try to make this car the most affordable possible. This will give an opportunity to the middle class society and high class society to both contribute in buying this product. The SWA will help prevent the increasing of global warming and its impact on the environment.
