135"While most of the environmental problems we face result from the use of technology, society must depend upon technology to find solutions to these problems

In an era of an explosion of science and technology, living standard of humanity has greatly improved, however, the earth, planet we live on, is suffering a lot. The speaker claims technology has brought us most environmental problems while we should solve these problems using technology. This idea does make sense to some extent, while after a careful and serious analysis on the essence of the problem, I believe that it would be one-sided or even dangerous to utterly depend on technology.

With the help of technology, we are now enjoying a great more convenient and comfortable life than ever before, however, we are now facing a host of serious environmental problems that should be well settled down. Otherwise, they would be a threat to humanity. In reality, for instance, technology has been introduced into factories to increase productivity while, at the same time, is polluting our waters and the air. Metropolis and skyscrapers, which seem to be symbols of improvement in human history, lead to increasingly declined area of farmland and forest. Moreover, nuclear power supposed to be implemented in power station appeared in the battlefield. Consequently, the rich land becomes a barren one and numerous kinds of animals and plants are getting rare or even go to extinction. Every year a majority of people in the world suffered from drought, flood, acid rain and so on. According to a myriad of incidents reflecting day-by-day aggravation of environment, it is no doubt that most of the environmental problems result from the abuse of technology.                                                                                                

While people are complaining that technology do us a great harm, experts are looking for ways to get out of trouble. At last, ironically, technology again comes on to the stage. Ecologist and scientist quickly reach an agreement of cooperation, that is, to apply technology to restoring and protection of environment. For example, scientists are conceiving of a new technology to obtain fresh water from icebergs that will largely add to the inadequate water supply. Also, technology has been used to establish a well-designed system to supervise the overall change of world environment that help to take accurate and timely measures toward urgent situations. Yet the difficulties exist in some technological matters, it would be realistic and doable to employ technology to deal with the environmental problems.  
   
However, before taking a deeper look at what behind these problems, any conclusion is open to doubt. There is a key question need answering: Who indeed bring these problems? It’s not technology but we ourselves. Just like a baton in a conductor’s hand, technology is in our control. It’s our carelessness and shortsightedness that engendered technology abuse. Human need wood for energy so they cut down trees with saw in their hands without hesitation. When there are no trees to stop the solid being carried away by the flood, they blame the saw. Humanity wants to improve the living standard but that usually brings along with it an attitude that eager for quick success and instant benefit. Without clarifying this point, those problems maybe solved at present, yet the situation in the future won’t be better. Gradually, we will find us bogged down in an awful circulation that problems are remorselessly produced. Then that would become unmanageable, with catastrophic consequences for future generations. So the problem above all is to change people’s attitude and approach toward nature and environment and that would make technology become a good servant not a bad master to our environment. Take a famous example, Yellowstone National Park, which is until now the largest natural park over the world, was built in the voice of an increasing number of environmentalists 130 years ago. Now it is the pride of American people for it promotes a valuable idea--- the protection of nature that has been well proved.   

In conclusion, technology is not simply the answer to all problems. It is certain that, to successfully deal with the environmental problems, we should never wavers in the belief that only in a sane and reasonable way can we make better use of technology to serve the society and the environment. That may well be the biggest challenge of all.

we must employ technology to solve  the pressing social problems we confront, as we did in the long history. whereas for the endurable development we should depend on education or law system to change our human's altitude toward the unique environmonent that we live in.
