Question

which of these transportation scenarios is not related to the impacts of globalization?
shipping for international orders drops based on increased use and the ability to bundle international orders.
consumers demand that furniture be made locally, causing a drop in the use of carrier services.
some pet foods produced internationally can only be shipped via water transportation; this eliminates small, local suppliers from accessing the market.
consumers use the internet to search for products and services; this causes an increase in orders from asian countries through american \middle men\ companies which then must invest in new shipping options from china.

Explanation:

Globalization involves international trade, interconnectedness, and cross - border activities. Shipping international orders (bundling), international pet food shipping eliminating local suppliers, and consumers using the Internet to order from Asian countries through American middlemen (involving cross - border shipping) are all related to globalization. However, consumers demanding locally - made furniture (which reduces the need for international shipping/carrier services related to imported furniture) is a local - centric demand and not directly related to the impacts of globalization.

Answer:

Consumers demand that furniture be made locally, causing a drop in the use of carrier services.
