Blog 8

     In the book Globalization Reader, the chapters and pages given to us they talk a lot about how before they were going through bad air pollution.  The reason behind why it was so bad they gave examples like electric heaters and natural gas furnaces which produce very bad air pollution. Now in Chapter 64 they talk about Greenpeace which they break the biggest air polluting factors into 4 and they look into them and ways to fix them almost completely. They gave an example about a way they fix these problems, and it was their nuclear campaign, they take time in reprocessing and dumping of any nuclear material. Fixing these nuclear problems saves not only us but sea creatures. Chapter 68 is dedicated to a lot of climate disasters which is affecting many families and people all around the world when a tsunami or any natural disaster hits a certain area it affects multiple people. Which like hurricanes creates a lot of pollution and they don't really focus on things that happen after the hurricane which ruins a lot of animals in the sea. Now in the article, In Your Phone, In Their Air the main thing that caught my eye was how they talked about lithium batteries which a big focus in the world. Lithium batteries power multiple things like our phones, laptops and also a new way to use them which is big part in this world is electric cars like Tesla's. Tesla's have been a big help in this world with polluting air just off of the fact they don't have to use gas.
