On the other hand, the centralization of the internet in the form of ultra-popular websites such as

Google and Facebook leads to an intimidating level of power and control of information by a few
omnipotent companies. The information stored by ‘Big Data’ consists of individual facts about your
career, friendships, family, interests, spending habits, and so on, that combines to form a general profile
of who you are, whether your relationship will last, how fast you drive, where you are or will travel to in
the future, and more.

The problems that stem from the blind belief that better technology automatically leads to a better life
are becoming more and more clear. I believe that the answer to these problems is not an outright
rejection of the new technologies themselves, but rather a responsible reevaluation of how we use
them. It is my hope that the coming decade will see more and more people making this evaluation.

The majority of things that have been changed by the technology are beneficial to disabled people and
help people improve there life. Technology has made life much easier for people and safer however it
has also created new crimes. technology has change education a lot and improved facts and knowledge
and helped humans gain the information we require. i find that i use the internet to research everything
on a daily basis. Technology also has changed the way we communicate with each other and with
technology and the internet we can keep in contact with people that live far away for free and without
costing also of money. people can now work at home and do the job they need to complete from the
comfort of their own home. there are negatives to this though because there are a lot of distractions at
ones house. so i have concluded that technology has benefited us for the best and i could not imagine
my life without it.

Is biodiversity a goal in itself, or is it

a means to other, more fundamental

goals? Determining our goals involves

scientific, economic, and social as well

as ethical considerations, but we seem

to agree that a healthy human commu-

nity and economy must be integrated

with a healthy land community. While

we fumble toward defining land

health, we must protect it, and regard-

ing biodiversity, we know its reduction

would reduce the potential for future

economic and health developments.

Underlying survival values are the

natural givens that support everything

else--forests, sunshine, wind, rain,

rivers, soils, seasons, flora and fauna,

trophic pyramids, and succession. The

ecological services provided, such as air

and water purification, soil formation

and protection, carbon sequestering,

groundwater recharging, and evolution

itself, make civilization possible.

For myself, Ican come only to a

general conclusion: that biodiversity

has values worth protecting, despite

scientific and economic uncertainty,

because when the risk of impact on

people or the land is high, we should

act with caution and maintain future

options. Protecting biodiversity is a

way to hedge our bets for survival.

Reaching this point, I find I also

justify protecting biodiversity in one

more anthropocentric way: aestheti-

cally. I can't imagine a world with only

10 symphonies, or 100 sculptures, or

1,000 paintings, even if they would be

"sufficient." The world would be

greatly diminished withouthe natural

variety of species and ecosystems, even

if some minimal biodiversity were

managed for a level of productivity

that sustained human populations.

While the opportunity exists, let's aim

for something more than "sufficiency"!

If humans are to multiply and have

dominion over the earth, I'm also told

the Lord Creator looked and saw that

creation was good. Good is not lightly

to be misused, and the dominion that

seems most appropriate is one of re-

spect, trust, and care of the land.

I conclude that my personal re-

sponse to biodiversity must come from

all of my roles: professional, citizen,

and steward. Thought prepares me,

but the test will come when I am faced

with a specific situation: real people,

real places, real evolutionary associates,

and a real need to make a choice.

To make the world a safe place for all organisms, we must maintain good health in all the ecosystems.
This is the benefit of paying attention to biodiversity.

It is not possible for the human to live all alone on the Earth. Various other life forms are equally
important and play their roles in the mutual survival of the various species on the Earth. Each one of
species has its own set of contribution for the environment. Already many species have become extinct
as they were not able to survive in the changing weather conditions. Hence it is our duty to ensure that
our activities do not affect the other flora and fauna on the planet. Although there are a number of steps
taken by the government so as to preserve the various life forms, we should also contribute individually
towards this cause. If we do not act today, we may yet again witness the extinction of the vulnerable
biodiversity which may further disturb the balance of nature.
GMOs is very important to many individuals and organizations because it involves questions related to
food safety, human health, ecosystem health, and the ability to continue to make genetic improvements
of plants. The GMO debate is likely to continue for many years because of the complexity and strong
opinions on the topic, as well as the economic impacts that may influence interest groups on both sides
of the debate. GMOs continue to be researched, new methods are evolving and with new information,
comes new points for discussion.
