Technology
Due to the competition with the nature and humans; and competition between men and men the following technologies have evolved for use of human beings:
Curbing Disasters
Many civilizations in the world had been come to an end because of natural disasters. Due to this fear of man that disasters are destroying their life he tried to withstand this force so that their civilization will last longer than other group of civilizations. Because of a lot of mental effort now man is able to curb at least some disasters. If not actually change or abolish a hazard to happen but at least now man is able to take precautions in reducing the effects of the disaster to longer extent. And now devices are developed which can actually detect any disaster before it actually strikes.
Now man is able to avoid many natural disasters which earlier caused a wide spread damage to the society and also made the life of people difficult. But now man is able to face them with ease. Now new and sophisticated devices and technologies developed which are accurate in finding and warning people of the disaster to come. It is at present but with the competition getting intense there will be devices which can even eliminate the threat of causing even minor damage. Devices are being sprang up which can stop the effect of the earthquake, control the speed of wind velocity, create tides and in fact control the whole environment.
Nuclear Technology
One hundred years ago, a group of scientists knowingly or unknowingly ushered in the Atomic Age. Driven by curiosity, these men and women explored the nature and functioning of atoms. Their work initiated paths of research which changed our understanding of the building blocks of matter; their discoveries prepared the way for development of new methods and tools used to explore our origins, the functioning of our bodies both in sickness and in health, and much more...
Discovery of Nuclear Energy and Development
As the resources of earth are limited man is in search of alternate resources or resources which can replace the original resources. One of the resources which are exhausting at a rapid pace is energy resources. With the increase in the boost in the field of automobiles, fossil fuels are vanishing and in the world, most of the electricity produced is via thermal power stations after that hydroelectricity. But water is limited. Therefore enough electricity is not being produced which is important for development. So man researched over Nuclear Technology, and found many advantages which are very useful for man kind. ; and even some disadvantages.
Nanotechnology
There can be infinite uses of Nanotechnology...
Nanotechnology is a new age technology which is going to make our life more luxurious. Nanotechnology will not only expand our already impressive scientific field, but will also help to develop new ideas and devices. It has spread in so many fields, including medicine, technology, computers etc. One of the most promising thing about it is in the near future is carbon nanotubes are going to come. In the medical field its use is the most. The industrial advantages are like automatic pollution cleanup, expanding computer technology by making it faster and smaller in size. The social advantages include, reproducing extinct animals and plants, safe space travel, higher education, molecular food synthesis etc.
It’s not sure that what so ever man is doing in this field is going to lead us to a better future. As there are many advantages of nanotech, there are disadvantages also as atomic weapons.
Biotechnology
It can be defined as the applications of biological organisms, systems or processes to manufacturing and service industries. It has vast fields of implications in science. It has a huge impact on human life all across the world.
Its contributions to human health are moving rapidly, promising a healthy life.Men are investing in research and development projects that can save human lives from deadly diseases. Biotechnology also has its benefits for the agriculture sector. Tremendous scope is offered by molecular biology and genetic engineering for sustainable agriculture by offering quality food and hybrid crops.
All these technologies have developed because man wants to show his dominance over the others. In the same process he is developing technologies which are much better than the previously developed ones. As a result now we are having these many technologies. And in future also there is a possibility of better technologies.
