Sun Petroleum Corp. recently moved its operations from Galveston, Texas, to Somalia. The decision to move was the result of new federal regulations regarding clean air standards that all petroleum corporations are subjected to. A critic of globalization would say this example demonstrates what concern

Facilities in advanced nations are moving to less developed countries that have lower environmental regulations.

Explanation:

The move from Texas to Somalia seem to be one which aimed at allowing the company to operate under less strict regulations especially legislations regarding environmental pollution and degradation owing to ozone layer depletion and climate change resulting from high carbon emission. Petroleum processing generates a lot of carbon and strict federal regulations have been established in other to control emission in most developed countries such as Texas where Sum petroleum operates. Therefore Sun petroleum's move to Somalia will be seen as one which is aided by the company's desire to operate under less strict environmental guidelines.
