By every conceivable measure, Globalization is the fundamental factor driving forward the progression of humanity as a whole, being the single greatest positive contribution to mankind by every value we share; collectively increasing quality of life, innovation, and the coherence connecting cultures, countries, and the world in a scale never seen before. An example highlighting the inherent positives behind globalization can be found according to National Geographic: "In general, globalization decreases the cost of manufacturing... The average cost of goods is a key aspect that contributes to increases in the standard of living... Consumers also have access to a wider variety of goods... In some cases, this may contribute to improved health by enabling a more varied and healthier diet" (nationalgeographic.org 2018). From this, one can infer not only as to the inherent benefits stemming from a decrease in manufacturing cost, allowing for people worldwide, both poor and rich, to fundamentally increase their standard of living, whether it be in regard to technology, or in basic goods such as clothing and housing. It is for these reasons and more that Globalization, in every aspect, is one of the

Globalization is a negative because of all of the disadvantages that it can create throughout the different countries. An example from online.hbs.edu states, "When viewed as a whole, global free trade is beneficial to the entire system. Individual companies, organizations, and workers can be disadvantaged, however, by global competition. This is similar to how these parties might be disadvantaged by domestic competition: The pool has simply widened." This shows how since more countries have globalization there is way more competition gained. If one country were to make one good trade the other country (countries) could get very jealous and this could cause very deep competition. This is just one of the reasons why Globalization is Bad.

Globalization has more negative aspects that outweigh the positive because if nations were to grow from globalization, there will be disproportionate growth, and increased competition between them. For instance, as stated in Harvard's website, "Another issue of globalization is that it can introduce disproportionate growth both between and within nations. These effects must be carefully managed economically and morally" (online.hbsedu 2024). Disporportianate growth goes against what the main point of globalization is, as its main mission is to communicate and share between nations. This can also cause competition between the nations due to the jealousy that one has more than the other. These side effects should be recognized, as it is a very important part when taking into account the pros and cons. In conclusion, this is why globalizations' risks outweigh the positives tremendously.

Globalization is bad because it had more of a negative affect than a positive affect. According to motionpoint.com globalization causes job loss "When industrialized countries outsource labor, it causes a shortage of jobs domestically. Laborers whose skills are no longer in demand experience higher unemployment, and struggle to adapt to the changing labor market.

For example, the U.S. trade deficit with China eliminated 3.7 million jobs in the US between 2001 and 2018, and more than 75% of those losses were in manufacturing." Showing that due to globalazation causes a large shortage of jobs.

Globalization is absolutely horrible for the environment. For example according to OECD for every 1% that sales increase it increases the pollution and CO2 emissions by .58%. Now while this doesn't sound like a lot you have to compare that to how much sales increase so sales have increased by over 50% since 2018 and therefore the pollution has raised by over 25%. Now you may be asking why should I care about the co2 emissions and the reason for that is because if co2 emissions keep rising it will create a snowball effect creating higher sea levels, hotter temperatures, and dramatic weather changes.

Additionally, online.hbs.edu says that globalization has been linked to, "Greenhouse gas emissions and other forms of pollution caused by increased transportation of goods" As the world grows bigger and bigger and more companies have more workers, more and more pollution overrides the atmosphere of planet Earth. Within this century alone, greenhouse gasses have risen, and will continue to rise if this continues.
