As a result of electronic inventions such as the computer and television, people do less physical activity, and this is having a negative effect on their health. To what extent do you agree or disagree

The scientific revolution and modern electronic inventions like computer and television have greatly improved the quality of life over the

last

20-30 years.

Moreover

, great progress in the field of science has made life simpler and faster. Modern electronic equipments have greatly helped in reducing human effort. While it is true that machines have replaced man in many industries and

as a result

, people do not have to put in hard physical labour like they had to in the past, it does not mean that

this

is having a negative effect on their

health

. In

this

modern era of computer and television, people are more aware of the benefits of a good

health

. People can easily access websites and watch channels which provide them knowledge on the importance of maintaining their

health

. There are several websites and TV channels dedicated to promote

health

awareness programs. Due to

this

, one can easily watch

such

shows and access Google and YouTube to learn different exercises, yoga and aerobics. There is no longer any need of joining expensive gyms and aerobics classes. It helps in saving lots of

time

and money. It has a vast array of information, articles, videos which raises awareness of the importance of physical workout and having a healthy lifestyle.

For example

, it was the television, which introduced us to the morning yogas of Ram Dev Baba and it quickly became popular in every household. People these days are more

health

and beauty conscious than they were in the past.

Consequently

, modern people engage in lots of physical workout like the morning walk, jogging with their pets, cycling.

For instance

, in every big city, it is very common to spot young people jogging and working out in the parks early morning or late in the evening. Modern people invest more

time

and energy in staying fit. Electronic inventions have made work simpler and has helped in saving lots of precious

time

, which allows people to invest more hours in exercise. Advent of printers and photocopying machine is a big example. Men no longer have to write pages after pages, they can easily take a print out and save several hours and utilise

this

time

in building their fitness. In conclusion, I totally disagree that modern electronic inventions are responsible for having a negative effect on people's

health

. There are people who are lazy and are not interested in physical activities,

however

the Television and computer cannot be blamed for their fault. It is their own responsibility to opt for a healthy lifestyle. Even before

such

inventions were made, the society had a good percentage of people who were not into exercising and led a less active or sedentary life. To make matters worse, in those days the knowledge and awareness were lacking among everyone.

As a result

, only a certain section of the society like men in uniforms, police or wrestlers was engaged in exercise. In the modern era, people of all ages, housewives, children, young adults, mothers, aged people are very conscious about their

health

and wellbeing and clearly the media has played a huge role in spreading the light of knowledge.
