2. Environment is the total sum of all
surroundings of living organism ,
including natural forces and other
living things.

3. Technology is the collection of
techniques, methods or processes used in
the production of goods, services etc,
such as scientific investigation

4.  Able to perform everyday tasks faster
 Able to process information, manage and keep
records better
 Helps people gather information, learn ,enjoy
entertainment and communicate
 Technology , made human life so easy , now it’s
been hard to think without it .

5.  Technology In Education Effective Use of Technology in
Classrooms America Schools provide one of the most
diverse environments today. ... Being in a diverse
environment is a great way for students to get

6.  This paper is about the way information technology
effects the business world today. ... We will also analyze
the way information technology has affected the way
businesses function and how the have adapted over the
years . Civilization has never expended as much change as
it has over the last twenty years. ... Every part of our lives
are affected….

8.  Nuclear technology has been around since the middle of the Twentieth
Century; masterminded under intense global military pressures, nuclear
technology raises many questions about the value of a technology that has
the capability to render the planet unfit for human occupation. .

9.  Today I will tell u little about the pros & cons that
technology is placing on our Environment
 Pros : Using technology we have found many clean
energy sources , like solar power . So we don’t have to
burn all those fossil fuels most power plants use.

11. How do we balance growth and development with practices that will
help protect the resources and environments we all count on?
• Improved nutrition, medical
treatment have led to dramatic
increase in world’s population
• 1 billion to over 6 billion since 1800
• Industrialization, development
have placed great strain on world’s
resources, environment
• Major challenge: achieving
sustainable development
Resource Use
• Economic development that does
not permanently damage resources
• Try to balance need for
development with protection of
environment
– Limit use of resources
– Set aside areas where no
development allowed
Sustainable Development
Protecting the Environment

12. The global environment has been seriously affected by pollution. Human beings
have always polluted their environments, but pollution did not become a serious
issue until the Industrial Revolution.
• Revolution brought
new industrial
processes
• Created waste
products that harmed
water, air, land
• By 1960s, began to be
threat to human
survival
Threat
• Countries cannot
agree on how best to
fight pollution
• One debate, issue of
global warming
• Rise in surface
temperature of earth
over time
How To Fight
• Could bring disastrous
changes in Earth’s
climate
• Many scientists
believe air pollution
caused by human
activity has caused
global warming
Global Warming
Pollution

13. Technology does make activities uncomplicated and genuinely
makes life easier, but how can a person stay physically fit and
healthy when he/she does nothing himself/herself? many
environmental issues are discussed.
 Increased pollution
 Increased use of fuel
 As humans travel globally they carry and spread disease from one area of
the world to another.
 Ecosystems destroyed to build runways.
 Affects of pesticides on organisms other than the crops sprayed.

14.  There has been an increasing concern about the impact
that technology has on the environment
Speed of change in human civilization has been
occurring faster than changes in the natural cycle of the
environment.
 Technology has accelerated the process of
change.
 Two major factors have led to an increase in pollution
and the depletion of natural resources.
 Accelerated technological and scientific change.

15. Consider the impact each technology has on society and the
environment. They can be either positive or negative impacts.
