The Good Life

QUESTIONS:

1. What is the relationship between the good life and science?

 Let us first define what is a good life, does a good life has a concrete and exact

definition? Can we define it based on books and based on the knowledge that

we everyday acquire? We all have different definitions of a good life, it depends

on our own perspective of life, and it is based on what we know and what we

experienced as an individual. On the other hand, we all know that science help

us to have a food life, a better life. Science helps us to discover what we can

do to help ourselves and the humanity to have a good and better life. Good life

and science have a special and an important relationship that we actually all

know, we can either use science to make only our lives better or to improve the

quality of life of all the people around us. Due to science, we discovered a lot of

things not only related to machinery and to improving our technologies, but we

also discovered a lot of things related to our health and related to medicine.

Having a good health is actually part of having a good life and with the help of

science, we became aware of how our body works and how we can achieve a

good health. Just like on the documentary film, science is entirely involved with

how sugar affects our health and our well-being as an individual.

2. Based on the short film, does technology always lead us to the good life? How
and why?
 Based on the short film, technology can lead us to either a good or bad life. It

depends on how we utilize technology, it depends on how we use it in our daily

lives. Technology can improve our lives by making every task a lot easier, it can

also help us with our health and help us also to discover and learn a lot more

things that can actually improve the quality of life that we currently have. On the

other hand, technology can also lead us to a bad life, based on the video

technology is actually used in making this refined sugar food, technologies or

machines are involved in creating food that gives us a misconception on what we

eat. Again, technology can either be an advantage or a disadvantage for us. It can

either lead us to a good life or a bad life depend of how we utilize science and

technology to our lives.
