Topic: Technology is causing environmental pollution. Some believe that we should not technology and make our lives simple; while others believe that we should use it to control the problem. What is your opinion?
Technology is a blessing that has been bestowed upon us. Numerous eccentric discoveries have proved to be the felicity of the mankind and certain it is that they have made our lives comfortable. However, not everything is perfect; indeed technology does have some odious effects, like environmental pollution which we have to forbear. Pollution can be subdued, if we stop using the latest gadgets, but in my opinion technology can be auxiliary in controlling the pollution.
Firstly, if our lives are void of technology then we shall have the lives of primitive people, like those dwelt in the stone ages, trying to put on fire with stones, travelling hundreds of miles on foot taking weeks to reach their desired destination, no mobile phones, internet facilities, computers, making our learning and education slow. In addition to that our health system will be crippled without modern diagnostic process, operational technique and medication can give a way to various epidemic diseases especially AIDS. The strong intimacy of modern man with technology cannot allow him to live without it.
Secondly, scrupulous use of technology can help us to fight against the problem of pollution. For instance, the use of train engines running on electricity rather than the coal ones, proper disposal of garbage and it's recycling, clean sanitation system, all are made possible by technology.
Thirdly, if we do make our lives simple, the element of pollution will still be there. Burning of coal and woods is the most essential part of every inhabitant and this can most evidently destroy our ecosystem because of smoke and deforestation.
However, the opponents believe that we should be circumspect. We should not completely remove technology from our lives but decrease its utility, like walking to the nearer places instead of using cars.
Concluding, I concede that technology do have some draw backs but if we use it wisely then surly it can help us to control the problem of pollution.
