Question

describe the likely local , regional and global impacts of these changes in consumption by your community. what may be some impact on your locality of increase in consumption elsewhere?

Answer 1

Everything, from the food we eat to the clothes we wear to cars we drive, has global implications, requiring resources from distant places and generating pollution far from our homes. But while these impacts have been known for a long time, our understanding of the complex ripple effect throughout the global economy and on natural and social systems remains rudimentary.
