As your third speaker, I am entrusted with the task to present the non-practicability and non-viability of

globalization particularly on the Philippine setting.

(1) Damage of environment. Amid existing opinion with regards to globalization, globalization has
also taken areas of concern that would take precedence over its benefits. Prominent among
these is the macro-effects it renders on the environment. Natural or artificial, all the
environmental components such as trees, lands, water and the likes are constantly converted in
line with the expansion of business more particularly for the production of goods. The desire of
competitive businesses and capitalists to be able to produce more so that they can compete
with other capitalists having in mind to facture more profit creates the need for expansion,
thereby resulting to exploitation of more natural resource like land, water, minerals. This
utilization of land especially the denudation forest land compromises the environment and
would eventually add to the effects of climate change. The deterioration of the environment is
an offshoot of globalization (pls include carbon emission and mining)
(2) Pollution. Globalization requires greater industrialization and production, thus it has adverse
effects on the environment. with globalization, people consume products that have been
developed in foreign countries. The amount of fuel that is consumed in transporting these
products has led to an increase in the pollution levels in the environment. It has also led to
several other environmental concerns such as noise pollution and landscape intrusion.
Transportation has also put a strain on the non-renewable sources of energy, such as gasoline.
The gases that are emitted from the aircraft have led to the depletion of the ozone layer apart
from increasing the greenhouse effect. The industrial waste that is generated as a result of
production has been laden on ships and dumped in oceans. This has killed many underwater
organisms and has deposited many harmful chemicals in the ocean.
(3) Globally competitive learners and its relation to braindrain.
