3. Globalisation
L.O: To understand the impact of globalisation and to evaluate whether we have a responsibility to take action
Globalisation = “the process by which businesses or other organisations develop international influence or start operating on an international scale” (Oxford dictionary)

5. So what do we mean by Globalisation?
For example…
If a company in England pollutes the atmosphere, does the pollution stay in England?
If a ship spills oil in the English Channel, does the oil stay in English waters?
Have you ever ordered something off the internet that was shipped from another country?
What country were your trainers made in? Or your coat?
Why are items made in other countries often cheaper than British-made products? 5

Many farmers trapped in poverty by being under paid for their produce by companies that have a monopoly.

10. Global communication Raised awareness of global issues
Communication with family and friends
High street stores lose out to Internet shopping
Media dependency, control of information

At least 80% of humanity lives on less than $10 a day

Campaign (convince power players to make a change)
Boycott / Buycott
