Will Technology Save Us? ...Yes and No

It is true that many people believe that technology will save us with positive effects. Technology has made people's lives more convenient and affluent. However, will it save us from environmental issues in the future? I totally agree with Zaina that an answer to the question, “will technology save us?” is yes and no. I believe technology will save us if human beings use it wisely, but if we use it incorrectly, we will destroy our planet buy making huge mistakes. It is always difficult to take a moderate point between two extremes. If we use too much technological power to improve a society, there will be more environmental pollution and destruction. On the other hand, if we use little technological power, we will suffer from current environmental issues and lose the planet. Therefore, people need to make a wise decision in terms of how to use technology. So, technology means the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes in general, but in environmental terms, it gives people choices of how to use scientific knowledge and tools to save us from global environmental issues. Use of technology is a challenge for human beings. People need to be responsible for what they do with technology; otherwise, they will demolish the earth. I hope people use technology with virtuousness to have comfortable lives.
