Let's kill this pointless debate on the meaning of "global" for once
and for all.
Here's the definition in Chamber's English Dictionary. That's a
British English dictionary, though it includes slang and usage from
the USA and other places where English is the national language.
adj. global spherical; world-wide; affecting, or taking into
consideration, the whole world or all peoples; comprehensive
Any difference you perceive between the British and American meanings
of "global" only exist inside your head.
