Environmental Issues

Question 85681 • Online World History B

Which statement best explains the impact of globalization on the environment?

Answer

Globalization has had little to no impact on the environment because it mostly relates to communication between countries.

Globalization is mostly damaging to the environment because companies and consumers around the world create ground, air, and water pollution.

Globalization is mostly helpful to the environment because governments around the world work together to establish agreements and preserve habitats.

Globalization can harm the environment by leading to pollution and other problems, but it can also help governments work together to identify solutions.

Explanation

Globalization connects countries through trade, travel, and communication. These connections can increase pollution and other environmental problems, but they can also make it easier for governments to cooperate on solutions. Therefore, “Globalization can harm the environment by leading to pollution and other problems, but it can also help governments work together to identify solutions” is the best explanation; the other choices describe only one side or dismiss the impact.
