I like this article because it can increase our knowledge about how the
globalization hit our earth . One of the effect of globalization is shortfall of the
water . Imagine living without water, all of the living things will be died. Widfire
everywhere. With the uncertain climate our earth will be destroyed. When rainy
season there will be flood, when summer there is no water. It’s a big problem
absolutely. So let’s start from ourselves, keep the earth breathing with a lot of
trees , decreasing garbage by recyling, reuse, and reduce.
