"due to" heißt in meinem Fall aber sowas wie "wegen" oder "deswegen" oder "daher".
Es ist also kausal verwendet worden.

kleiner tipp von mir:

Du solltest unbedingt an deinem Ausdruck arbeiten und Konjunktionen lernen. Es lohnt sich wirklich damit deine Texte einen besseren "Fluss" bekommen und flüssiger zu lesen sind. Im Moment reihst du viele Hauptsätze einfach aneinander...und das Wörtchen "because" muss man nicht so oft benutzen und kann man schön umschreiben.

MFG
