A lot of technology wasn't developed, so things like direction were difficult. At the very beginning, there were few cartographers (map makers) and the maps that were available were usually wrong. Often, because of this, they couldn't travel farther than the sight of land. It would be difficult to get adequate funding, too, because people were weary about practically betting their investments on voyages that could be lost or stolen. The weather was also a component, but there were few forecasting tools, so you could be headed straight into a storm and not know it. hope that helps! please vote this answer the branliest, too!

Answer:

Why are we losing the species that currently exist and not giving the opportunity for new species to emerge.

Explanation:

Violent human exploitation of nature, pollution and climate change are causing the death of species, en masse, promoting a very large loss of biodiversity on the planet, without allowing new species to emerge. This is because new species need to evolve from old species, which are being killed these species are dying, there is no evolution.
