Improvement in Healthcare
With the help of technology, our healthcare system has flourished. The
diseases that resulted in the loss of lives of millions of humans in the
past are now treatable. This has increased the overall life expectancy
of people. Moreover, for humans who are suffering from chronic
diseases, many advancements have been done that have increased
the quality of life for them.
In the days of yore, our ancestors used campfires to cook and heat
their houses. However, now we have electricity and it helps us in a
million different ways. It is not only safer than campfires, it is a pretty
convenient form of renewable energy as well!
The overall living conditions of humans have increased since they can
get knowledge and can apply what they have learned to make their
lives better.
With the help of technical tools, we can fight global starvation and
hunger. Agricultural processes have been optimized in a way so that
we get high crop yields that will reduce hunger issues all over the
globe.
Pollution
Since the overall production and consumption levels have increased,
the global pollution levels have also increased. For example, since
there are more industries now, there is a lot more smoke that
is polluting the atmosphere as well.

Destruction of Habitats
To create more space for humans and their needs, several natural
habitats have faced destruction that has adversely affected many
plants and animals. Large areas have been rendered unsuitable for
animals due to the lack of a technological environment and
technological advancements.
The only thing that protects us from the harmful impacts of UV rays is
the Ozone layer. Due to the excessive usage of pesticides, chemical
fertilizers, and the emission of greenhouse gas, we are facing Ozone
layer depletion. With the Ozone layer gone, the probability for severe
diseases like cancer, skin issues, etc. has increased rapidly.

Final Word
Like everything else in the world, there are pros and cons to
technology and its usage. There are a lot of positive impacts of the
progress that we are making but we need to keep in mind that the use
of innovation for the sake of profit maximization and neglecting
its impact on our surroundings will have detrimental effects. There is a
huge need for developing environmental technology that helps with
environmental issues.
