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

Positive impacts of technology on environment

Some technological decisions put environmental and economic concerns in competition with one another, while others have positive effects for both the economy and the environment. Reusing, recycling, and using fewer resources can reduce environmental impacts.

Negative impacts

Fossil fuels—coal, oil, and natural gas—do substantially more harm than renewable energy sources by most measures, including air and water pollution, damage to public health, wildlife and habitat loss, water use, land use, and global warming emissions.

Answer 2

Technology is helpful for the environment because the technology we have has and is saving people and helping us live longer, while at the same time it is depleting our ozone layer by the car exhaust and polluting the environment by the byproducts of the technology we use today.
