  A. It's used to explain that the environment is an inherently global and large-scale concept. 

"Think Globally, Act Locally" is a method by which many environmentalists continue to live upon because it represents a way of dealing with great questions. The sentence means that, while we should act in our local community, it is always important to think that the action we do in our local environment has consequences on a global scale.

Question
In Robert Browning's poems, how does the speaker's desire to win his beloved in "Life in a Love" differ from the duke's marriage to his first wife in "My Last Duchess"?
Solution 1
The speaker's feelings towards their loved ones are greatly different in these two poems. In Life in a Love the speaker refuses the fact that his lover is considering leaving him, as he believes that it is his fate to love and pursue her. On the other hand, in My Last Duchess, the Duke is also haunted by the knowledge and possibility of not having all of the love of her duchess for himself. However, his tone is far grimmer as he becomes obsessed about her impressionable nature and jealous of her being favorable of other people. He reaches a point where he cannot tolerate this anymore and gives orders to have her killed.

While the speaker in the first poem will do everything it takes to win his lover's affection, the speaker in the second poem attempts to retain his lover's attention by force and abuse.
Solution 2

Answer... The speaker's desire is enduring, but the duke's marriage is short-lived
