The Double Edge of Globalization



Globalization has been largely blamed for causing many environmental problems, which is mainly the result of expanding trade between countries. This has led to massive deforestation, overfishing as well as the increase of pollutants which overall economic and social disruptions may rival those of major global events. On the other hand, globalization allows the world to become increasingly interconnected thus people around the world can easily gain knowledge of the effects of globalization and as a result increasing awareness of the global situation. Despite that, countries are unwilling to work together to solve global issues and that will curb the United Nations' ability to act upon them.
