Planes, ships, and trucks transporting goods all over the world are harmful for the atmosphere and affect local ecosystems.
Sadly, the environment also suffers as a negative effect of globalization. As great as increased flow of goods and knowledge are for people and the economy, the underlying business activities adversely affect the environment. Global trade and transportation networks, along with increased market demand, mean more use of fuels that contribute to a higher exertion of greenhouse gases. Planes, ships, and trucks transporting goods all over the world are harmful for the atmosphere and affect local ecosystems. More demand also means more production, again causing more fuel and raw materials to be used up. Interestingly, remote working can help businesses save on environmental costs, but remote working alone won’t solve the environmental challenge of globalization.
