Over the past two months, we have looked at globalization as a whole and broken it down. We have gone into depth on each topic in relation to globalization including, fast food consumption, slaughterhouses, agriculture, recycling and trash, and global trade. After learning about all this, it really changed the way I see the world and how I go about my day to day life, and it has made me wonder why and how we do things we do. After taking a quiz to see how many Earths we would need if everyone lived like me, I was surprised at first to know I only took up 3.9. My first thought was that four is a pretty low
number and that I was doing my part in “saving” our environment, but after looking at the number and my logging chart for how much
material I consume, I realized that we don't have four earths that are Going to appear out of our back pocket et - we only have one, and we are not taking care of it. Then I looked at my
expected end date which was April 23, 2021 which would mean our world would have already become unlivable if everyone was living like me.
We are over using our personal resources and our global resources. Every day we face many choices that may impact our environment either positively or negatively - things like bringing your own bags to the grocery store versus using the plastic ones. I go back and forth on whether or not the choices I am making are positively or negatively affecting this world. I tell myself the things I do are leaving a positive effect, but deep down i know buying things online, buying bags of chips, soda cans, pretty much everything, is having a negative effect. Do to globalization more business operations worldwide are expanding causing more pollution and dstrunstion of or world. If we all keep living the way we are living there isn't going to be enough time, we need to take action in some way, shape, or form, and this earth isn't going to keep providing for us.
My foot is based on the idea that we are running out time. Everyone is always saying we need to take action and change the course of our future, but nothing seems to be happening. People think that it's just one place that needs to change but in reality the whole world needs to change. The resources and methods we are using aren't sustainable. Places are trying to take action. An example of this is the Fit for 55 is a package by the European Union designed to reduce the Union's greenhouse gas emissions by 55%, by 2030. This is one of many examples, but more places need to make changes because the time is ticking. A clock never stops moving. If Earth had 12 hours like a clock, it looks like we are on hour 11 and we only have 1 hour left to change the way we are living as of now. So on the bottom of the foot, i am painting a 12 hour clock with the second hand and the minute hand at 11:00 o'clock showing that our footprint can be dangerous and everything we do is taking up time. The world will eventually become unlivable but it's up to us to change the course of our lives further.
