Globalization

 In my opinion, globalization can be seen all around us. For example,  as typical thing, there are media, trade and communication. Now, through media such as TV or Internet, we can know various information even that in foreign country and also touch new culture. We also get foreign country's goods by international trade. My favorite sweet ,"HARIBO" is from Germany. In addition, we can communicate with people in overseas by using e-mail or Phone. It's result of globalization, I think.
 Globalization gives us a lot of benefits and if it were not for that, we wouldn't live like what we do now. However, we should know there are some bad aspect of globalization. First, for globalization, an internal compan can decline, when foreign company advances into a country. From the result, the number of the unemployed would increase. Cultures also can decline for globalization. By arrival of fast-food culture, Japanese food cultute has changed to bad direction.
 As I said above, glovalization has both good and bad effect, but in my opinion we do receive benefits of globalization. That is because if we don't receive that, our daily lives change greatly largely. We can't listen western music and see sports match like football, also know incidents in foreign country. Moreover, we needn't use English, though we have studied it for a long time. This is how wasteful thing! Therefore, I agree globalization.

Shopping

 First, when I decide to go shopping, I make a plan what to buy before I go shopping. It save a time to be irrersolute to decide what to buy and I won't need to buy wasteful things. Moreover, this is because I can't decide what to buy soon.
 Second, untill I became a high  school student, I also wear my brothers' used clothes. I think it is helpful to save money for new clothes and people of other family should do this. It reduces number of clothes which are thrown away.
 Third, I try not to receive plastic bags at convenience store or shopping market, otherwise I use them for other purpose. I think both action will be helpful for cut garbage. The only thing we have to do is to take our own shopping bag, it's so easy thing.

 I usually try to save electricity in daily life. For example, I turn off lights in the room we don't use in my house. It is very easy way to save electricity, I think. I also try to economize on the use of water. We are apt to forget to turn the tap off, so waste of water often happens. Electricity and water are both precious source, so we have to save these material.
 I notice some person often use air conditioner westely in summer. Of course, we need to keep safe temperature because it is necessary thing for our body. However, many people set up temperature at too cool. It isn't good thing for both our body and environment.
