section Summary
 
 
The technology in our world has been both a beneficial force and a destructive one. On one hand, technology has made our world a much simpler place to live in, and it is hard to imagine the world we live in today without it. Just about everything we do, from shopping for groceries to paying your bills, to even sending your friend a letter in the mail, is driven by the technological advances in the world today. However, technology is also a huge cause of the world’s problems we face today. Nuclear weapons are a threat to the planet’s future, and a person can detonate a bomb in a subway station or a building from miles away. Nevertheless, in the 21st century, technology remains a huge factor in the way we now live our lives. This dependence on technology was not as important in the past however.
