MJKPS ISA Activity - Creating Videos on Technology Vs Environment

“ TECHNOLOGY IS NEITHER GOOD OR BAD – IT’S WHAT YOU DO WITH IT THAT MAKES THE DIFFERENCE….”

Technology is application of knowledge to practical requirements. Green technologies encompass various aspects of technology which help us reduce the human impact on the environment and create ways of sustainable development. Social equitability, economic feasibility and sustainability are the key parameters for green technologies.

Over the past few decades, technologies have made a few great contributions to the environmental protection. Renewable technologies have reduced the demand of fossil fuel; computer technologies have enabled paperless office into reality and thus decreasing the number of trees used to produce paper. Over the past few decades, technologies have made a few great contributions to the environmental protection. Renewable technologies have reduced the demand of fossil fuel; computer technologies have enabled paperless office into reality and thus decreasing the number of trees used to produce paper. Environmental degradation is a growing concern as continued industrialization is being witnessed mostly in developed countries.

Technological improvement in recent years has seen production of more machines, weapons and automobiles. Increased consumption of improved facilities triggers demand which in turn influences supply of required quality of products that are major effectors of industrialization using improved technology. Importance of technology in such cases is attributed to satisfaction of human wants.  Sharing a presentation made by the children of class XI - Maninder Singh, Gurkirat, Archit & Samrath

Land is a fixed asset that cannot be changed according to mankind's needs.  Pollution - Air, water, heat and noise pollution can all be caused by producing and using  technology . Disrupting ecology - Clearing land where animals used to live to build factories and allowing pollution to contaminate the food chain can greatly  affect the environment's  natural cycles. Environmental  pollution, ecological systems disturbances, depletion of natural resources and climatic changes resulting from global warming are technologically influenced.  Technology  is significant in development and increased productivity to satisfy human need, but uncontrolled  technology  impacts  environment  negatively.  Wh en  electronics  are not recycled properly, the raw materials inside them leech toxic chemicals into the ground, spoiling both our water and food supply for decades, at least. For this reason, it is extremely important to recycle  electronic  devices in a proper manner.
