When a country develops its technology, the traditional skills and ways of life die out. It is pointless to try keep them alive. To what extent do you agree with this opinion?
Technology
has replaced human work in many areas of life
. The further
we dive into a more technological world the more we leave conventional skills and practices behind. Though some people argue that the replacement of such
skills ultimately leads to the end of ways of life
, I agree that countries develop and invest in technology
for they can provide a better life
and grow ourselves as a being.
It is undeniable that technology
has improved the human's quality of life
. Since the industrial revolution, humans have drastically increased their life
expectancy across the globe. The impacts of technological advancements in modern society
is huge and provide us with a more affordable and easy way of life
. For instance
, a couple of hundred of years ago the invention of the lightbulb caused a disruption in society
, where many jobs were lost and plenty others were created. As a result
of that invention, it is now unthinkable to live without electricity in modern society
. Thus
, though technology
creates disruption and eradicates more traditional trades, it benefits the lives of millions and pushes society
forward.
That being said, in modern society
, it is known that we as a specie will have to become a more developed being in order to continue to inhabit this
planet. And technology
will play a huge role in it. Advancements in science, biology, physics, and other areas are essential to explore the earth's resources responsibly and to its fullest. For example
, the recent scientific search for clean sources of energy is a great investment that will enable us to enhance our knowledge and grow as a civilization by exploring and sustainable using the resources we have access to. Consequently
, as we develop as a civilization we also
develop ourselves as human beings.
To conclude, the eradication of more traditional skills is not always a negative thing. The replacement of such
tasks with technology
can, and most likely will, provide us with a better quality of life
and a society
developed to its fullest capacity.Submitted by nicolasmottasi on
