SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY
Today, any scientist can tell you our lifestyle and the state of our planet are intertwined. Electricity, automobiles, housing projecting, mass transit, airplanes, factory farms, distribution networks, and rising population are changing the face of the Earth.
It seems every day, new technologies emerged to change our lifestyles even further. From its humble beginnings in the garages of ambitious engineers in the 1970s, the personal computer has transformed not only the way we gather information, but the way we perceive how we interact with the planet. Renewable energy, new pharmaceuticals, and the synthesis of computers and cell phones are only a few of the technological advances that could change the way we live.
Of course, we also have to deal with the side effects of high technology, namely rising pollution and overpopulation. Scientists are not unaware of the irony that scientific research may be the solution to the problems that science created in the first place.
