Destruction - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Diamond I agree with you but I must say this: While technology can be good if it is used properly it is still a destructive force. Technology has enabled this world's population's to grow and grow (better methods of farming, machines for harvesting, increased food production). With this huge population we burn oil (ozone depletion, global warming), forests are being destroyed for all the houses that must be built.Without technology nature would naturally limit the amount of people living on this earth. By using technology we have increased the amount of people this earth can support, and the amount is simply too much.

This argument and be flipped either way, just wanted to share my thoughts. I don't think there's one 'correct' answer to this.
