Question

Explain two ways that technology has had a positive impact on the environment and two ways that it has had a negative impact on the environment.

Answer 1

NEG: As tech gets better and better, all the old models usually just get tossed increasing all the landfill stuff that won't ever really decompose. 
POS: a large reduction of paper usage, and multi functioning devices.

Answer 2

Without technology, we wouldn't have as much of an idea what other forms of resources would be worth trying. Also, if we didn't have technology, people would be dying more rapidly from illnesses, due to many unknowns only found out through technology. Although technology has many good points, it also has some more negative ones. One way that technology has a negative impact is that it puts radiation into people, which causes health problems. Another way technology is negatively impacting the environment is with the clearing of forest land, with the help of machinery. This clearing is driving animals out of their homes.
