Global Inequality

As an individual and an American, we should care about global inequality because it can affect your everyday life despite you being aware of it or not. All of the countries around the world are connect in one way or another, whether it’s providing resources, goods or even pollution. The affect can be positive through books or culture and negative through violence or war. The decision on where you choose to buy your groceries or coffee—local?—that determines the type of pollution we create to the world. Starbuck choose to use organically grown coffee from around the world, which helps that countries economy, but creates more pollution due to travel, so next time you go get coffee at Starbuck know that you are affecting the global inequality.
