to lower-cost locations abroad → cheaper products for customers Outsourcing → many workers lose their job when companies go abroad •Oppression of weaker economies by stronger ones ("the rich get richer, the poor get poorer") Unequal economic growth → richer countries benefit more than developing countries (exploitation → unsafe & unethical working conditions) widening social gaps Background knowledge Outsourcing: = an agreement in which one company hires another company to be responsible for a planned or existing activity → often involves transferring employees and assets from one firm to another. →>>> Outsourcing is a practice usually undertaken by companies as a cost-cutting measure. customers get cheaper products • increase in company profits • increase in economic efficiency distribute jobs from developed countries to developing countries • strengthen international ties → • loss of jobs • unemployment rate increases • can cause lack of transparency for the own company • Information can get lost where it is needed (quality of working skills gets lost) . • Environmental damage Environment: Globalisation leads to an increase in environmental pollution: transport of products through ships, planes & cars exhaust fumes from factories fruits/vegetables are no longer bound to seasons but available the whole year (more production, transport and storage of products) Carbon Footprint = ecological footprint → amount of carbon dioxide emissions (trace you leave on Earth) carbon footprint is left by everyone either directly or indirectly Climate Change: • greenhouse gases cause chemical, irreparable damage to the atmosphere → global warming • temperature will keep rising; only little rise of temperature can cause natural disasters & animal extinction → Consequences: • floods in costal areas, heavy rainfall in some regions and drought in others, melting of polar ice-caps, forest fires, rising sea level etc. -biodiversity is threatened; many plants, flowers and animals will extinct Fairtrade: Fairtrade: = trading partnership that seeks greater equality in international trade •supports farmers and workers → stability of income highlights the need for change; fights against poverty, climate change and economic crisis + better deal for producers could prevent child labour • high quality products • workers are paid enough • better working conditions · . • environmentally friendly • education and healthcare for the poor . • Fairtrade supports unsustainable markets • higher prices • hard to check if it's fairtrade- • limited variety of products Greenwashing Questions that could be debated: •What has been the impact of globalization? •Do the positive impacts of globalization outweigh the negative impacts? To what extent does globalization affect our identity? •How has the internet affected globalization?
