Session #5

Since the author talks about ecological crisis and how advanced we are in technology that we should be able to solve all the problems. What if we just don’t know all the infomation that we think we do to help us in the future?

He was saying that we have become very materialistic and selfish about the way we look at nature. If we don’t get a product out of nature we don’t value it as much as we should. Ever since we have become technologically advanced we kept taking and taking from nature without thinking about the future. We  have become all about what we want , the power we have with money and thinking we can buy anything with the green piece called money. Maybe we have become so selfish and think we have all the answers when reality we don’t. Even with a huge amount of the information we know and the advances in technology as well as solutions to the problems we have created. I think it is not just advances in technologies that can help the environment but more about the attitudes of people. Without changing our ways technology won’t get us there. So many people are stuck in their old ways and are not willing to change. I also highly doubt that we know all solutions as author stated, that  we should with all technology advances. The problem is people not technological advances.
