Everyone is blinded by their personal enjoyment and needs to realize the damages that are slowly occurring. We are consuming and using resources greedily and we are taking it for granted. We must stop this action before we create further damage to our world. Globalization is not sustainable because the earth’s population is increasing which means the resources are decreasing, and we rely too much on resources that we are slowly creating a dark hole for our future.

In places such as China, population is a polemical issue. With 1.3 billion people, they are accounted for 1/6 of the world’s population. Globalization helped a lot when it comes to China’s growth.

We are taking what we have now for granted without thinking about the future generations and lastly the more companies we are building to produce more trading goods, the more we are creating a dead end for the human kind and many other living organisms like animals and plants. We have been building factories on top of their habitats and ruining the ecosystem. If we do not stop this carelessness the end may be neared than expected.
