New Technology: A threat or a Promise (2)

Promise

Technology has become a promise because technology advancement improves our standard of living. The internet provides us with great convenience and efficiency which saves us all the time on traveling and lecturing. We are able to find educational websites by just a click of our fingers without having to travel all around to gather information. This is a good way for us to protect the environment as no time is needed for traveling which also means less people will get out of their houses using cars for transportation. Thus, when technology improves, our lives get to improve as well.

Threat

Technology is a threat as it creates many negative impacts on global climate. It is just like in the past when we do not have the equipments to work on; we worked on our bare hands. However, due to technology improvements, we are able to get the things we want easily and we need not care about what kind of things we will not be able to get. The fact is, since we are so reliant on technology, we tend to neglect the significance in protecting the environment.
