About this Quote

This quote by David Attenborough reveals his opposition to the existing trend of globalisation based upon financial gain. He believes that this type of globalisation is not helpful for the world as an entire, and that it is driven by the pursuit of financial benefit. He is concerned that this kind of globalisation is resulting in a broadening gap between the rich and the bad, and that it is creating an unequal circulation of resources. He is also stressed that this kind of globalisation is resulting in a decrease in cultural diversity, along with a decrease in the quality of life for many individuals. He thinks that globalisation ought to be based upon mutual regard and understanding, instead of on financial gain. He believes that globalisation must be used to promote peace and understanding in between different cultures, instead of to create a world where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
