Give five examples where modern development that is associated with progress has lead to problem you may like to think of areas related to environment issues, nuclear weapons or disease
Answers
Answer:
Example 1 is related to the soil degradation due to rampant use of modern chemical fertilizers to increase the yield of the land in agriculture. This led to removing most of the soil nutrients and large scale consumption of water, finally making the soil sterile and lowering of the water table.
Example 2 is related to the development of nuclear weapons like the atom bomb. The dropping of atom bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki killed many people and also deformed or diseased many more due to the nuclear radiation that spread after the bombs exploded.
Answer:some examples are -
usage of HYV seeds and pesticides have leaded to problems like loss of nutrients in soil,mixing of chemicals of pesticides into the ground water and from there to the lakes and other water bodies.this results in formation of algae on water which blocks the oxygen coming in the water .fishes die due to this reason.
these also are very expensive which many farmers cant afford
another example is thrash and burn agriculture which produces a lot of pollution.
construction of buildings , eventhough is important but forest are cut down for the construction of these buildings,
