If you could post examples of not working KML files we could have
a look at them and tell you what is not working.

I suspect that maybe the encoding is not valid utf but that
is just a shot in the blue.

If you save the living environment, the biodiversity that we have left,
you will also automatically save the physical environment, too. But If
you only save the physical environment, you will ultimately lose both.

1) Don’t drive species to extinction

2) Don’t destroy a habitat that species rely on.

3) Don’t change the climate in ways that will result in the above.
