Hello, guys.

The advantages and disadvantages of scientific and technological development have now become a topic that everyone attaches importance to. Before expressing my opinion, I want to make a comparison:

In ancient times, people were superstitious about ghosts and gods, and thought that human life was decided by heaven, and birth and death were controlled by heaven;

In modern times, people have proved that superstition is not desirable through the development of science and technology, and they should create their own lives through their own hands.

In ancient times, many people were seriously ill, and doctors could do nothing but watch the patients die painfully;

But now, through the development of science and technology, most intractable diseases have been successfully cured, and people don't have to worry about getting sick.

In ancient times, communication was very inconvenient, and even people died at home, and the wanderers in their hometown had to wait for more than a month to know;

But now, communication has become very fast and convenient. Mobile phone, TV, newspaper, e-mail, etc. , has become a new way to close the distance between people.

……

The above example is just the tip of the iceberg of the case that scientific and technological development benefits mankind. The rapid development of science and technology is unimaginable to ancient people. Why do TV and newspapers talk about promoting the development of science and technology almost every day, because how is the dream of flying for thousands of years round? It is the development of science and technology; What makes communication convenient? It is the development of science and technology; Why can seriously ill people live a happy life again? It is the development of science and technology! If the development of science and technology is wrong, then why do inventors and scientists such as Galileo, Newton, Edison, Madame Curie and Einstein dedicate their precious lives to science? Why spend so much precious time on the "wrong" cause? Have they no judgment? Who thinks their death is worthless, and who thinks their contribution to science is meaningless?

Of course, the development of science and technology has also caused some negative effects, but these effects should have been very small, but human beings are like a magnifying glass, magnifying these negative effects. If humans can consciously reuse plastic bags instead of littering them, will it cause such serious white pollution? If mankind can exploit resources exhaustively, will it cause the current shortage of resources? If humans can save water and factories don't illegally discharge pollutants, will it cause serious water shortage now? There are many such things. Some people not only don't introspect, but blindly point the responsibility at "technology". I feel ridiculous and desperate for these people.

I can't help asking: isn't the development of science and technology necessary for society and mankind?
