When globalization Hits locally

We are global citizens. There is no way to deny our inherent connection to the rest of the world. We lived through an international pandemic, felt inflation rise as conflicts heated up in Europe and saw massive layoffs across the board, most recently in tech. We chose to narrow our attention to three main focus points: climate change and its mental health impact on teens, cultural commercialization and local businesses in the era of mass distribution and online shopping. Globalization has brought the world to our fingertips and it has changed the entire way we operate.
