The environment is more important than science and technology

Science and technology develops productive forces to create a highly developed
material civilization, but the use of science and technology properly, and triggered a
worldwide environmental problem is very serious. Because people are not expected to
the negative impact of a highly developed industry, leading to a global environmental
pollution and ecological destruction. Environmental pollution will cause direct

damage to the ecosystem and influence, such as: desertification, forest

destruction, and damage the environment effect is difficult to eliminate. I
watched the film Wall-E recently. In wall-e, earth is depicted as essentially one big
desolate, well to be able to live. Human beings can migrate to other star, then
commissioned a robotic trash company after, until the earth environment system to
achieve ecological balance. Then WALL-E finds one tiny little green plant, and that is
evidently enough to constitute proof that the planet can be reclaimed. Behind the film
to imply that, No matter how appallingly bad conditions on Earth get, so long as
there is one tiny plant on the planet, it can still be restored to its former beauty and
sustainability (from WALL-E).
In the film technology is very developed but the earth's environment is difficult
to survive. Such as Sandstorm and smog, reflects the serious air pollution.
Atmospheric pollutants on the human body is various, for respiratory system damage
and cancer or other else. The atmosphere in high concentrations of pollutants, the

pollution caused by acute poisoning, or the deterioration of symptoms, even killed

thousands of people in the few days of life. In fact, even if the concentration of
pollutants in the atmosphere is not high, but the human body for months and years
breathing such polluted air, can cause chronic bronchitis, bronchial asthma,
emphysema and lung cancer and other diseases. December, 2002, marks the 50th
anniversary of the great smog event in London, UK. Stagnant weather conditions
caused a sharp increase in the concentration of air pollutants, and over several days,
more than three times as many people died than expected, leading to an estimated
excess death toll of over 4000. Concentrations of sculpture dioxide and smoke
reached several thousands of (g per m3.1 The London 1952 smog was not without
precedentsimilar events occurred in the Meuse valley, Belgium, in 1930.) (Air
pollution and heath Bert Brunekreef & Stephen T Holgate) the atmosphere in high
concentrations of pollutants, the pollution caused by acute poisoning, or the
deterioration of symptoms, even killed thousands of people in the few days of life.
People must pay attention to the problem of air pollution.
Today, Space junk is increasingly becoming a problem faced by human being. In
the movie, when the spacecraft to leave the earth can see a lot of space junk and
obsolete satellite. Half a century has passed; we have the space into a garbage dump,
which is filled with a thousand pieces. The spacecraft will drop the atmosphere to
ashes, but this process usually takes a few months time. There are millions of space
debris around geostationary orbit 20000 miles above the earth's surface, has not gone.
For years, scientists have warned NASA of the grave threat of space debris to
shuttles. Some experts now fear the growing problem of junk flying through space
could ultimately doom the U.S. space program.(Team in springs eyes space debris
Shuttle disaster answers soughtJennifer Beauprez and David Migoya Denver)

Space junk is not only bring huge risks to the aerospace industry, but also polluting
the space, bring disaster to human beings, especially nuclear power engine off,
causing radioactive pollution. The space is huge; these space junk space is very large,
very little possibility of collision. However, the tragedy is only a matter of time, and
Clear space junk than to remove garbage on the earth is much more difficult.
The future of intelligent robot is responsible for the production, processing,
transportation, construction and other physical labor. The movie as living in a
spaceship, everything is done by machines. The development of science and
technology to improve the work efficiency to provide better living conditions and
the quality of the human. Nearly half a century, with the wide application of the
development of space technology and applications of the satellite, the human has
pioneered the development of satellite communication, satellite radio, hitherto
unknown, the meteorological satellite, satellite navigation, satellite and space science,
military applications and other new areas of space technology for radio and television,
telecommunications, weather forecasting, resource survey, navigation and positioning
agricultural production, disaster relief, rescue, environmental monitoring and
scientific research, to play a benefit and effect of traditional methods cannot achieve.
The world with the progress of science and technology are developing rapidly, but
what would the world be like without science and technology? Such as Life After
People The film is In a normal and there is no sign of the day, people in every
corner of the world suddenly disappear from the earth. Human beings have
disappeared from the earth, almost all human beings left relics of civilization will
disappear in 20000 years, 50000 years later, the earth all the human remains will be
difficult to pursue archaeological clues, because all the digestion of glass and plastic.
Only a few artificial radioactive and chemical contaminants are longer, they are

human beings cannot see the heritage. In fact, if human beings disappear from the
earth in 200000 years, will be difficult to find evidence of human life has been.
Christopher Rowley So people need to constantly innovate and research new
technology. If there is no science and technology we will live in the era of primitive
backward.
Finally, The environment is more important than science and technology.
Technology can bring us a new lifeWith the progress of science and technology, the
survival of the human environment, science and technology to the development of
improved, but the survival of the human environment is more important. Each
instance of a pollution of the environment, may say that is the nature of human
sounded an alarm. In order to protect the ecological environment, in order to
safeguard the health of human beings and of future generations, we must actively
prevention and control of environmental pollution. If you do not Protect environment,
mankind will face extinction.
