Technology Hurts

Main question is, is technology good for our society? I automatically think to myself, well of course. But, that's because I'm so use to it. I find it to be a great necessity in our daily life, our routine, and everywhere. See it as it being needed in our society today. Things aren't always as they seem apparently. I agree that the technology is bad for our society.

Let's start with over all technology is bad for our society. I personally love to exercise, but I can't find the time, or simply because I'm lazy. We live in a society that we need cars for transportation or that what we want to think. If we go back in time where we didn't use cars as much, and walk place-to-place. Obviously you become healthier. It would be a great deal of difference. Think about it. Walking relieves stress, helps have a good keep your heart healthy, and not only that were helping the environment around us. In the way that cars aren't releasing pollution in the air. This leads to a problem now with global warming.

Not only is technology affecting adults, but children too. Children in society today are not as active as they use to be. They find "Hannah Montana" to be more amusing than the beautiful flowers outside. Young boys starting to watch the violence on television, or listen to it in music lyrics. That has a great influence on our society in the long-run. Studies show that those who watch violence are violent. Your kid could be the next possible serial killer? Not only that, children are glued to their video games that discourage them from being active. This leads to obesity. That affects them also in the long-run. Doesn't everyone want to live longer?

Another thought on how technology is affecting our society is big using the cell phones and the internet. Popular in young teens like myself. This affects us in the way that it is "dumbing us down." We decrease talking face-to-face which it can develop problems socially. Texting can be a great influence by causing accidents on the high way. By using the internet we may be inviting a dangers stranger.

So basically I don't think technology I think its doing the exact opposite. Yet, I couldn't find myself living without it! So, what do you do when you can't reduce what harming you mentally and physically. Just like global warming, were hurting our environment, but yet we can't stop doing things that are making it worse.
