A lot of people ask questions about the world and how we can fix it. The world is slowly crumbling right before our eyes do to pollution, exhaust and waste. Fossil fuels like coal and gas are burned relinquishing waste into our atmosphere. But now that technology has increased when need to lean away from fossil fuels and start new with the technology of solar energy. Humans now have the ability to create renewable energy through solar panels. New Hampshire agrees with my thesis, they recently realized this. “Members of the state’s Congressional delegation announced Monday (December 2) that $1.9 million in federal grant money is headed to New Hampshire to fund research projects aimed at advancing solar technology”(Feely). \With all this money coming in to the state,they have a great opportunity to lean more toward solar energy and be more confident in the reliance on solar. In recent years, all this talk about the environment is making humans scared and having them scramble for what ene...

For most people, you wake up and get dressed and get maybe get breakfast and at the table most people have nothing better to do then to check their Twitter, Instagram and Snap-Chat. Social media is a huge part in people's lives on a daily basis and it leads to the questions. Is it addictive? Can people last without it? And who is most affected by social media? In a Ted talk I watched called “why you should quit social media” by Doctor Cal Newport he had some interesting statements. One of which really caught my eye.

This is because designers and creators of social media purposely try to make you engaged and make social media as addictive as possible. They want to create that urge in your stimulus to make you want to keep using it or in his reference spin the slot machine. And it will happen over and over again.

Technology is constantly changing and evolving year by year. There are drones that deliver mail, robots who clean and vacuum on their own, and now Runaway automation popped into the mix recently. Every year, cars have slowly advanced and technology in cars are making it safer for people to cause less collisions that result in Injuries and death. But it's almost getting to that point where humans have to ask themselves if they are relying on too much technology. Relying on technology to be the main steerer when it comes to cars is a bad idea. The fear of a malfunction or a mistake in the technology can result in serious harm. In an article I read, (link) It had a survey ( Pew Research report ) That expressed the fear in automation. 72 percent US adults expressed their worries about self driving cars and the reliance of technology to be in the driver's seat. People aren't quite ready for the transition to the reliance of technology. Picture of what a self driving...
