[Get Solution] The Benefits of Technology to Humans

This is a discussion topic.  Please answer the following question: Technology is not always a positive This week’s discussion is a bit of a continuation of last week’s discussion, and for good reason. The benefits of technology to humans are almost too numerous to list. As with anything, there are downsides to that advancement. Think of some as useful as plastic. Plastic has been around for well over 400 years…even earlier if we consider rudimentary plastics. The use of plastics have revolutionized life on earth in ways that are too lengthy to detail. However, we also know that plastics are not that easy to dispose of. They are toxic to produce, toxic to destroy, and take years to decompose if at all. Yet, we could not survive on earth even remotely close to the way we do without plastics. Plastic is just one example of a technology that has provided revolutionary benefits to humans and even our ability to care for the planet, yet it is also a pollution threat and a significant one. In case you have not heard, recent discoveries have hinted at the ability to decompose plastics and reuse them almost entirely. The technology is promising, but remains to be seen if it is as viable as it appears. Describe a misuse of technology that you have observed within the global community. Provide examples and feel free to expand upon the negative sides of technology that you mentioned in last week’s post.
