Thinking about Global vs. Local issues, in most cases it now makes sense for a business to source things from wherever it makes the most economic sense, provides them with expertise, and encourages openness. While most people think of this as meaning we're now going to offshore everything, it's important to remember that in some cases, the most efficient, smartest source for something might be close by.
For example, with the local food movement, there are many good reasons to eat food grown nearby - its supports the local economy, cuts down on transportation costs, and could even provide you with antibodies to make you healthy against diseases found locally.
Thinking globally means thinking of the whole world, including sources that are far away as well as close by.
