"Consequences of environmental degradation do not respect national or state boundaries". Support the statement with examples.

Dear student,

The statement says that irrespective of any region the consequences of environmental degradation spread not only to the area where it is degradation happens but also to the near lying areas and also at the world at large. Therefore, safeguarding the environment is an important issue not only for any particular region but for the whole world. 
For example, if CO2 is emitted from factories located in a particular country only, but this CO2 will cause global warming and will affect the entire world, particularly Antarctica and low lying nations. So, the consequences of environmental degradation are not bound by boundaries.

Regards,
