Through reading this story, we have come one step closer to understanding how something so "simple" as buying a tomato can have such a huge impact on our global environment.

Global = of the whole world, worldwide.

Environment = surroundings, especially those affecting people's lives.

- The Oxford Dictionary

"Hey, you know when you throw a stone into water - well, ripples start spreading out from the place you threw it - right?...right! This is a way of showing how we are connected through our actions, whether we live in Tuktayuktuk or Tahiti. We all share this global environment."
