The word globalism is relatively new. But even as a world process, we can say that it is new. In the world, there has always been trade, but also politics, armies, and peoples who have united for different interests at different times for special interests. However, with the creation of a new ideology - communism in Russia in 1917 and in the rest of Europe after the First World War, several empires disappeared and democratic states with national character were established, which means two different systems. The biggest divisions appeared after the Second World War when the world was divided into two sides, the democratic and the communist. There was also a third group of non-aligned states, but their role or power was insignificant compared to the first two. Complete mistrust was created and cooperation between them, mainly in economy and culture, was almost impossible. Therefore, after the collapse of the former USSR and the former SFRY, a new era began in the world, the era of re-globalization. Rightfully so, many authors see the beginning of globalization as a process after the fall of communism or often say "After the fall of the Iron Curtain". Communism, on paper at least, granted equal rights to all the people that were under its umbrella, but in practice, the opposite happened. Then the destroyed economy of the post-communist states gave people a completely different direction, an orientation towards democracy. However, unfortunately, this process from centralized economies to market economies or, in politicaleconomic language, transition, brought many problems, in all areas, to the point that they took the bread out of people’s mouths. In the meantime, various criminal groups, corrupt politicians, oligarchs who were almost nobody, and many other problems emerged. So many people lost hope, hating both the state and its past, which led to great changes in national, social, and individual character. Over time things began to change for the better.

Air temperature is a measure of temperature at different levels of the Earth's atmosphere. It is governed by many factors, including incoming solar radiation, humidity and altitude. When discussing surface air temperature, the annual atmospheric temperature range at any geographical location depends largely upon the type of biome, as measured by the Köppen climate classification. Air temperature describes the process of measuring a current local temperature for immediate or later evaluation. Datasets consisting of repeated standardized measurements can be used to assess temperature trends. Temperature varies greatly at different heights relative to Earth's surface and this variation in temperature characterizes the four layers that exist in the atmosphere. These layers include the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere. The aim of this paper was to analyze air temperature in the Republic of North Macedonia over the span of 10 years, measured in 26 different cities. Considering the fact that North Macedonia has a decent geographical position and also the relief, the extent and direction of the mountain slopes and their height are important climatic factors which also effect on the air temperature of our country.

The subject of this paper is the spatial distribution of population in the territory of the Municipality of Tetovo. The development of the population of the settlements depends on the influence of the different characteristics and conditions of the space where they are located. The paper analyzes the geographical distribution of the population in the settlements in the Municipality of Tetovo in terms of population number, population density, number of households and houses, the distance of settlements from the capital city – Skopje, and the distance of settlements from the municipal headquarters. The descriptive, analytical, comparative method, statistical, and cartographic methods were used in the preparation of this paper. The analyses and conclusions are based on the processing of data from the State Statistical Office of North Macedonia, from previous research, and the literature on the studied area and field research. Research on population and settlements is of great importance for economic and social development in the area, where the main factor for their development is the conditions where they are located. The purpose of this paper is to study the population of the municipality of Tetovo and to present a clearer picture of the distribution of population depending on some geographical determinants, which represent an important prerequisite for the development of space, or settlements, through which the population can develop activities various economic, and to identify the conditions of the settlements as a factor for displacement of the population and households, as well as to determine the zones with higher or lower population.

The purpose of this scientific work is to highlight the natural values that lie with a prosperous diversity, which contains a gallery of values that exist unrepeatable. The study aims to present the geomorphological, climatic, and hydrographic forms as well as the evidence of all diverse natural assets. As economic values, forests, pastures, mountain peaks, and the rich diversity of endemic plants and animals are presented, many that are encountered in the Sharr Mountain massif, as a stable economic base. The dimensions of the importance of this work are very huge. Firstly, this paper provides detailed data on Sharr Mountain. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Water is one of the main existential conditions of life on our planet. It knows no borders, so it is a problem that belongs to all of us and we must all take care of it together. The permanent human being is only used to take things from nature and not to contribute to it. However, human selfishness in relation to nature and the living environment, which is used without control and without care, can destroy entire ecosystems. All this comes back to people and is seen in their lives and health. We must leave the healthiest and most beneficial environment to future generations. The purpose of this paper was to analyze the physical-chemical parameters, such as pH, temperature, sulfates, chlorides, conductivity and suspending substances. Water samples were taken at different locations of the Sateska River, the Ezerka River and the Velgozda River and a lake shore where the water of this river flows into Lake Ohrid. A clean-living environment must be guaranteed for every citizen. Everyone is obliged to protect the environment and nature, that is, to protect the land, air and water. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Water is one of the main existential conditions of life in our planet. It knows no borders, so it's a problem that belongs to all of us and we should all take care of it all together. The permanent human being is used only to take things from the nature not to contribute to the "nature". However human egoism in rapport with nature and the vital environment, which is exploited without control and without carefulness can destroy entire ecosystems. All of this is returned to the humans and seen in their life and health. We should leave as healthy and as useful environment to the generations to come, as possible. The aim of this paper was to analyze physical-chemical parameters, like pH, temperature, sulfates, chlorides, conductivity and suspended matters. Water samples were taken in different locations of River Sateska, River Ezerka and River Velgozda and one lakeshore where the water of this river pours in the Ohrid Lake. Clean Living Environment should be guaranteed to every citizen. Everyone is obliged to protect living environment and nature, that means to protect the soil, the air and water.

According to the geographic latitude and proximity to the Aegean and Adriatic Sea, in a sense Macedonia belongs to the Mediterranean climate, but because of the stress relief it has a variable climate. These climatic features are presented with essentially the Pollog hollow where Sharr, Korab, and Rudoka mountains, on the border with Albania, measures to prevent infiltration of humid air coming from the Adriatic Sea. Therefore, due to this the Pollog hollow is characterized with not a lot of precipitation such as the Adriatic coast. The distribution of air pressure has significant influence on thermal conditions and climate in this hollow. Pressing air in January mainly declines moving toward the South, while in July is moving toward the southeast. In relation to this, air currents are directed to these directions. Air currents during the summer and winter move from larger geographical width toward smaller ones and thereby reduce the temperature influence: Although, the character of the climate over certain areas is influenced by many factors, in this paper particular attention will be given to changes of temperature, winds, air, humidity and rainfalls.

The basis for tourism nourishment is grounded in the attractions of natural and anthropogenic origin that are to be found in this area. Sharr Mountain represents a range of natural rarities and beauties, where each one represents certain rarities. The subject of the debate in the research will be the most important characteristics and values that are encountered in the area of Sharr Mountain, such as geographical position and traffic connection of Sharri Mountain, geomorphologic characteristics, climate conditions, hydrographical characteristic, flora and fauna, where particular accent will be placed on these tourist locations: Brustovec, Leshnica, Sunny Hill (Popova Shapka), Luboten. Natural beauties or attractions that these localities contain are considered very interesting and represent a huge tourist offer. This research has been done on score of different scientific methods. Method of analysis was used to study natural geographical characteristics of the given region, while, on the other hand, the method of valorization points out the verification of certain values that these tourist localities contain. Based on the data and outcomes collected from the analysis of the natural factors, it can clearly be deduced that Sharr Mountain is the biggest mountain in the Republic of Macedonia and with its markedness and beauty there is a huge potential for the development of other tourist localities. Sunny Hill is the only locality which has tourist infrastructure, but from a historic viewpoint we can conclude that this locality has been closer to the road and has had the opportunity to develop as first tourist centre.

Today, the term "climate change" in environmental policy is often linked to current climate change, including raising the average surface temperature of the earth known as global warming. Climate change is a term used in climatology to show the global climate change in the world during different time zones, since the creation of firth till now. Climate change may be caused by inland earth processes, external factors (ex. changes in solar radiation growth) or, recently, by human activity. Some of the factors of climate change are: deforestation, human impact, greenhouse effect, solar radiation effects, creation of industrial centers, etc. The climate of the earth has always changed. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution, the climate has changed as a result of changing the conditions of nature. Today we use the term climate change as we talk about climate change that is taking place since the beginning of the 20th century and is the result of human activities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
