Being a Technology Addictive, do you appreciate the things around us?
- Do you usually spend more time in front of a screen or do you spend more time outside admiring nature and appreciating what you have around you? For many of us this question isn’t hard to answer, because we would say that we spend more time in front of a screen. Now, I don’t want to focus a lot on the addiction that you might have with technology; but instead I want to emphasize how people in today’s society take for granted everything that we have around us and put more importance to technology. We don’t take care of nature or our surroundings, otherwise we wouldn’t be having a global warming and many animals wouldn’t be in danger of extinction. There are many consequences due to our lack of appreciation and care to what we have around us, but as a result the only ones getting affected are us and our future generations. We are causing for our future generations to live in a world based on technology and consumerism, instead of a world full of nature and life. We will be the ones that will cause for our kids and grandchildren to not be able to enjoy the beauty of nature, because by then the world will be worse than it already is. We are gradually destroying our own planet with all the pollution, gases, chemicals and a huge part of those causes involves technology. The problem is that instead of controlling and trying to fix those problems caused by us, we put more importance to inventing newer and newer technology products. The worst part of this situation is that many people know about this and have been informed, but they just don’t do anything about it and decide to ignore the situation.
