"The Double edge of Globalization", Chanda(2007) declares though
globalization influences environment by causing pollution and deforestation,
however it brings economic growth and urbanization and raises public awareness
on longstanding trend. At first, Chanda(2007)
presents that globalization will expand international trade, whose
objects are developing countries with poor environmental regulations, but
deforestation has little relationship with international trade. Secondly globalization
indirectly accelerates deforestation, caused by increasing demand due to
globalization. Next, globalization makes the world closely connected and fastens dissemination
of information, which makes people aware of natural disasters and worry about
global warming. Then author points out though global warming causes damage to
environment and there still exists divergences between different countries on global
warming, however, effective actions have been taken to deal with global warming
and more countries have raised awareness on longstanding trend because of globalization.
Finally, Chanda(2007) presents that globalization can be prevented by political
power.
