Topic: Today’s World is a dangerous place to live in
With every coming day life is becoming more and more easy for human
beings we are able to get everything on a single phone call. But like
everything has its positive as well as negative effects this technological
advancement also has its both type of effects. On one hand, it made our
lives comfortable but on the other hand it also made our lives dangerous.
But all these comforts and dangers are creation of human beings.

Our highly advanced technology helps some people to commit crime

more easily. The most useful inventions like computers, internet and
mobile phones are the main tools for this. Snatching rate was increased
anonymously due to these cellular phones. We do a lot of things on
computers like online banking, online shopping, chatting and
downloading etc. Most of these activities require money. When we
transfer our money online we put our credit card number and personal
information there. Hackers who are specially sitting behind the scene to
grasp our data gets our data and use to blackmail the individuals for their
purposes. Likewise, in old times people use to keep their money in
lockers at home or at any other safe place but now banks have taken
place of all these stuff. Banks have online systems and hackers need
simply 10 minutes to transfer all the amount. This growing technology
on one hand claims that it protects our things but on the other hand it
was basically putting our lives in great danger. Lastly, too much usage
of internet and cellular phones had made people mentally unstable.
People are lost in these devices that much that they even forgot their
jobs. Children forgot that they had to do their homework while playing
online games, teenagers are so busy in making new friends and
relationships that they don’t have much time to think about their future.
Elders are busy in doing online business, online shopping that they
found it difficult to check their children or their duties. . This technology
takes us all into a fantasy world and now we find it difficult to get out of
it. So, a technology world may benefit us but it can also put us at risk.
Crime rate increases very rapidly in poor countries. In poor countries
people commit crime to fulfill their basic needs and in rich countries
people commit crimes for enjoyment and leisure. The basic thing is that
countries have not done enough measures to stop these crimes. In rich
countries police is afraid to pursue the criminals. In poor countries
police itself is involved in such criminal activities. So ultimately people
feel unsafe everywhere.

Growing technology has created a blind war of scientific equipment and

weapons in the world. Now countries are working day and night in order
to increase their stock of weapons. Every country think that with highly
advanced weapons and bombs they can make the lives of their people
safe. But in reality the picture is totally opposite in this fight of having
more weapons countries had made life more risky and dangerous. These
atomic bombs, hydrogen bombs which can end life in just 2 minutes are
a great threat on the heads of people.

This rapid advancement is destroying our mother nature as well.

Growing number of manufacturing industries rapid development of
infrastructure all these things are destroying our nature badly. Industries
releases smoke into the atmosphere carrying harmful gases and chemical
wastes in to the rivers and seas. These things are dangerous for the life
of human beings as well as for all type or aquatic and land animals and
plants. Besides this rapid cutting of forests for development is increasing
the emission of carbon dioxide on earth which is effecting our ozone
layer. Two major holes appear in our ozone layer in last 5-6 years due to
which ultra violet rays of sun are reaching earth and causing different
skin diseases. Like few witnessed in Australia in 2012. These
environmental changes are the cause of unexpected floods and
earthquakes now a days. Our northern poles are melting speedily as the
temperature of the earth is rising with every coming day.
A world that is too technologically advanced, full of crime and effected
by disasters makes us feel that the world is a dangerous place to live in.
Most of these things are created by human beings and since we created
them we should solve them to make a world safer place to live in.
