We are surrounded by technology everyday. It’s so natural for us that we have our favourite music in one second or we have Wi-fi in our cell phones. But there’s still so much to discover or maybe to improve things already invented. Every invention should help people. But it can help the Earth at the same time. I like an idea of electric vehicles which about I read in article “Tech that will change the way we live”. The main source of energy is not petrol anymore which causes air pollution by exhaust gases. As well educated people we should be aware of climate change problem and find a solution. Maybe those vehicles are first step. Next one can be lab-grown meats, for example. The point is, we can use technology mainly for the Earth. We can live comfortably and help environment at the same time. It could be the… Read more »

I agree, generally there is still so much that we can discover and invent. While inventing it is crucial that we take into the account the environment.

Technology improves our lives on everyday bases, Technologies such as computers, laptops, tablets and smartphones make it easy for human beings of today to exchange information, make faster decisions, interact socially. New technology always changes our life very much and takes it to a new level. It is like the new way of thinking or doing the normal things differently, better and much more faster with less hassle and at a much affordable rate. Imagine life before Electricity, Life before the Automobile, life before the Telephone, life before the Computer, life before the iPhone. In article 3 automobile cars are mentioned, even though they are still not very popular in Poland, they are gaining popularity in USA for example. it is said that it is a more safer option and also cheaper since many automobile cars run on electricity. In Article 1 the agricultural drones caught my attention. The drones… Read more »

The technology is changing and developing constantly. All new electronic devices and internet influence our life in almost every sphere of it. The fact that we are using more and more technology changes the way we used to work and communicate with others. Sometimes it’s easier and sometimes it’s making our life more complicated and different. As described in the article “2019 Top innovations” and “Technology innovation has changed the world”, the technology changes our lives and how we function and communicate. All the new inventions and nuances that appear in our world change the way we perceive and use technology as well. Also, it can influence the way we communicate with others all over the world easily. The new inventions like those described in those two articles show not only our life but also the medical side and some innovations in medicine and how to treat people.

We are surrounded by technology everyday. It helps us with our the easiest problems but not only. New innovations are using in medical treatment (for example AR technology). They are environment friendly too, because new technologies like electric cars pollute the air less. Solar panels are environment friendly too, we don’t have to use carbon in power stations, because sun energy is renewable and it doesn’t pollute environment. I read in ‘10 tech innovations that will shortly change the world’ article about robot butlers. These little machines can clear our house, cook a dinner and be a babysitter. But it is not really good for all of us. Some people job is babysitting or being chef in someone’s house and people are replaced in workplaces by robots.
