The recent news of Japan's discharge of nuclear-contaminated wastewater from Fukushima into the sea has been spreading around the world. This is undoubtedly a disaster for marine life. Of course, once nuclear contamination is released, human beings will not be spared either.
When did people's environmental awareness rise? Perhaps it was after the Industrial Revolution when the devastated earth was discovered, or perhaps it was earlier. After people realized that the environment has a limited ability to repair itself, that some resources do not regenerate, and that more and more creatures are facing extinction.
To put it bluntly, it is the fast-developing technology that has brought about these irreversible damages, but we know all the same that the development of science and technology has led mankind into a new era and pushed forward the development of human civilization, which is why we would say that science and technology is a double-edged sword. So how do we utilize this double-edged sword? Make it convenient for us to move forward without overly depleting the environment on which we depend.
Air Pollution Solutions
For the sake of industrial development, human beings have been demanding resources from the earth, cutting down trees, mining and digging, etc. Since then, black soot has been discharged from the chimneys of factories, from the exhaust pipes of cars... This has greatly increased the burden of air purification. Trees have been cut down and the environment's ability to purify the air has been greatly reduced. While global vegetation has recovered in recent years, air problems have not been effectively curbed. This has been accompanied by inventions such as air purifiers, but this is ultimately a symptomatic solution to a problem that must be optimized more efficiently using technology. For example, the invention of new energy vehicles in recent years, vehicles that do not have to rely on the burning of petrol to run, is an example of technology changing the environment.
Resource-Saving Programmes
The process of technological development inevitably consumes energy, and what we can do is to reduce the consumption of energy.Environmental protection is one of today's hottest topics, the smart home is also gradually penetrate the hearts of the people, want to save energy, then you have to reduce the use of electricity, batteries, etc., most of today's appliances need to use batteries. The emergence of wireless kinetic energy products is undoubtedly the perfect fit for the requirements of energy saving, will be widely put into the home life, not only to meet the requirements of people for intelligent life, but also energy saving and environmental protection.
The development of science and technology should not be limited to the benefit of human life, but should also maintain the sustainable development of energy. There are many other bills that address environmental protection, what are your thoughts on this?
