globalisation

Right at this very moment, i'm sitting cross-legged on my bed, munching cookies while trying to complete this assignment. hmmmm.. this is exactly what globalisation is.

anyway, back to topic.
so after reading the song, i've come to realize taht while globalisation has its benefits, it does affect us and the natural environment in one way or another. Globalisation may connect people, it may improve a country's economy, it may even provide people with more employment opportunities. But, we are sooo preoccupied with life that we have overlooked the fact that because of globalisation, the wonderful works of Mother Nature are being destroyed. We are so caught up in our own little worlds with our newest gadgets and technology. Not once have we stopped to think about the changes taking place around us.


Well, all over the world, forests, plantations, tree and swamps and being destroyed to may way for new buildings, new housing estates, industries and various factories. I feel that while globablisation is important, we ought not to use it to this extent. Yes, it may have developed countries, it may have progressed the world but, the real question is, what has it not done.

What kind of cookies? Chocolate chip, I hope. I wonder what kind of packaging and whether the "carbon footprint" of that cookie could be calculated...
