INTRODUCTION
Sustainability can be referred to as the fulfilling the needs of the present generation
without compromising the needs of the future generation. It mainly focus on that organizations
should carries out the operational activities at the workplace without harming the nature and the
environment. Environment and the sustainability are interconnected with each other as
sustainability in the working will only help to conserve the environment for the future generation
(Adekomaya and Majozi, 2019). This topic has been chosen for this essay because it consists of
various elements and components that facilitates the managers of the company to save the quality
of the nature. Concept of the sustainability also helps the managers of the organizations to use
natural sources of energy such as solar panels. These helps in reducing the carbon emission from
the environment and also eliminates the pollution from the air. I have chosen this theme for the
essay as it increases the knowledge of the individual regarding the techniques that can be
implemented in order to save the natural resources for the future generation. I consider it as one
of the important concept because through this only quality of the nature can be maintained. It
also helps to increase the awareness about the negative impacts that are being caused by the
organization and the industries to the environment. In this essay there will be the explanation of
the topic of the environment and the sustainability in a effective manner (Rakshit, Sarkar and
Abhilash, eds., 2018). Along with that there will be the evaluation of the theory of the
Globalization in relation to the sustainability. After that there will be the analysis of the
methodology of the observations. At the end of the essay there will be the conclusion for the
above research.
TASK 1
Section 2
According to Akadiri and Adebayo,2021, globalization can be referred to as process in
order to take the operations of the business into the global market. It facilitate the local
companies to establish as a global brand in the international marketplace (Agrawal and et.al.,
2020). Globalization provides opportunities to the firms to increase their revenues and
profitability in the market. In relation to the sustainability and the environment, it can be stated
1

that it is very important for the organization and the companies to use the natural resources in a
effective manner through which they can sustain the environment for the future generation.
Theory of the Globalization focus on that local companies should expand their business activities
in the international market by the use of the resources effectively which does not effects the
quality of the environment. They should eliminate all the practices that can creates bad impact on
the environment of the international boundaries.
According to Dalby,2020, it is very important for he organizations to implement effective
techniques of production in the international market through which they can save the
environment and promote the sustainability. As globalization leads to the increases of the exports
from one country to the another and which can increases the carbon emission in the air. So
theory of Globalization mainly focus on that while taking the activities of the business into the
international market, organization should take care with the use of the means of transportation.
Globalization can lead to the global warming when there will be the imports and exports of the
goods on the large scale (Akadiri and Adebayo, 2021). It is very important for the managers of
the company to implement healthy techniques of production so that resources can be saved for
the future generation. Globalization mainly leads to the pollution in the environment when
activities are increased in relation to the imports and exports. So organization should follow the
concept of the sustainability in regards to expand the activities in the international market.
Section 3
In order to carry out this essay, observations methodology has been chosen because
through this the concept of the environment and the sustainability can be effectively analysed. It
has been observed that sustainability plays an important role at the workplace because it helps in
building and maintaining a valuable brand image in the eyes of the customers. When
organization follows the concept of the sustainability they become able to eliminate all those
practices from the workplace which can create negative impact on the quality of the
environment. It can be observes that the environment is the most important factors and the
resource in it plays an important role in producing goods and services into the market. So it can
be said that managers of the companies should make effective policies through which they can
save the environment (Dalby, 2020). It has been observes that sustainability includes several
components such as economic protection, social development and environmental protection.

These elements helps the organization to follow the concept of the sustainability in the
workplace through which they can carry out the operational activities in a effective manner.
It has also been observed that sustainability facilitate the organization to use the plastics
and all those ways that can impact the environment in a negative way. Sustainability helps in
making the environment more healthy and by following this organization can become able to
maintain goods image in the marketplace. For example, in today's time danger of the viral
diseases has been increased and COVID-19 has impacted the health of the people to a great
extent. It can be observed that It becomes very important for the organization to carry out the
operations in regards to the pandemic and they should take proper care of the sanitisation and the
social distancing (Grabs, 2020). These policies at the workplace can helps the organization to
save the local people form the virus as it has affected the lives of many people. For example,
managers of the Unilever company effectively carry out the sanitisation process through which
they reduce the danger of widespread of the virus at the workplace.
It can also be observed that sustainability helps the organization to change the ways of
packaging of the products from the plastic wrap to the paper. Implementation of this strategy at
the workplace can help the organization to save the environment from the non-degradable
material. It helps in decomposing of the all the waste in the soil which can helps in making the
natural resources in the future. For example, Tesco is one of the well established company that is
present in the boundary of the UK (Michaelides, 2018). They have eliminated the use of the
plastics in order to pack their grocery products which they offers to the customers in the market.
It can be observed that following the concept of the sustainability can give the opportunities to
the organization to make valuable brand image in the eyes of the customers. It can be seen that it
helps the organization to stand out from the competition as people who are more environment
conscious can be attracted to those brands which are more focused in using the concept of the
sustainability.

important topic for the organization that helps them to create an effective image in the eyes of
the customers. It has been analysed that sustainability facilitate the organization to save the
environment from the negative impacts and they become able to eliminate all those activities
from the workplace which can waste the natural resources of the environment. On the other

manner as through this organization implements all those policies which promotes the quality of
the nature. It has also been analysed that sustainability facilitate the organization to remove the
ways of carrying out the production which can create negative impact on the environment. In the
