 These movements of population and genetic material increase with the development of technology, trade, specialization in agriculture and environment- trade and homogenization in all dimensions (unintentional as well in biodiversity) are main thoughts of globalization (cf. Olorode, 2004, p. 532). A current, alrming example for this is the bee death in Norther America caused by an Australien virus.<ref> For further information about this example read an article [http://www.gmo-safety.eu/en/news/587.docu.html ''Imported viruses are likely cause of bee death ''] by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research. </ref>

+Globalization is not the sole cause for the loss of biodiversity, but it has definetely a huge impact. Moreover the consequences of the loss do have a real impact on global environment, on policy and on globalization in general.
