In the 20th century, contact between many different parts of the world has developed apidly through air travel and telecommunications. Do the advantages of this outweigh the disadvantages?

These days, in the digital generation where technology is involved in almost every aspect of people's lives, the contact between populations in many sections of the world has rapidly grown through

air

travel

and

telecommunications

.

This

movement contains both advantages and disadvantages,

therefore

, both of them will be discussed in detail in the following paragraphs before the conclusion is reached. It is undeniable that everything on earth always come with both pros and cons, including the idea that

air

travel

and

telecommunications

have become extremely noticeable in the public. There are numerous disadvantages that can be noted, but one will be explained in

this

paragraph. With rapidly developed technology nowadays, society tends to forget how they used to live without them.

For instance

, after using too much

air

travel

or

telecommunications

such

as telephone or other electronic devices, a person may become too dependent on them and would not be able to do anything or solve their current problems.

However

, I believe the positive effects made by

air

travel

and

telecommunications

actually outweigh the mentioned drawbacks. They make humans' life faster and easier. To exemplify

this

, my grandparents used to send letters to each other in the past in order to communicate as there was no other devices or any internet connection.

As a result

, it took more than a week for those letters to be delivered and some of their letters were lost during the delivery.

Moreover

, they needed to sail overseas back

then

, which took them a week to meet each other, because there was no other convenient transportation like

air

travel

. They said life was more difficult during their time compared to now. In conclusion,

although

people can become too dependent on living the easy life with highly developed ways to contact others like

air

travel

and

telecommunications

, I strongly believe their advantages far outweigh the disadvantages because they improve humans' lives by making things more convenient, comfortable, and suitable in today's digital world.
