i) A brief summary: (in English): The article discusses how globalization affects
environmental justice. Globalization is the interconnectedness of countries and businesses in the
global market, which has led to increased economic growth and the exploitation of natural
resources. However, this growth has also resulted in environmental degradation, including the
disproportionate exposure of marginalized communities to environmental hazards. The article
explains that globalization has led to the transfer of industries and their pollution from developed
to developing countries, where labor is cheaper and environmental regulations are weaker. This
phenomenon is known as "environmental racism" because it disproportionately affects people of
color, low-income individuals, and Indigenous communities who are forced to live near toxic
waste sites, factories, and other sources of pollution. Moreover, globalization has increased the
demand for natural resources, such as oil, minerals, and timber, leading to unsustainable
extraction practices, deforestation, and loss of biodiversity. These environmental problems
exacerbate poverty, food insecurity, and health issues in marginalized communities, perpetuating
a cycle of injustice. The article concludes that environmental justice advocates must challenge
the global economic system that prioritizes profit over people and the planet. They must demand
that corporations and governments take responsibility for their environmental impact and work
towards a more sustainable and equitable future.
