Science and Technology
Science and technology like fire can either cook man’s food or cook the man himself. Nothing is harmful until it is used with harmful intentions. Similarly science and technology in themselves are not disastrous. It is the ill and inhumane use that make them so. Alfred Nobel, one of the most renowned scientists was criticized so much when he invented dynamite. However, later on when it was used to clear mountains and rocks while making roads across rough, mountainous terrains, his invention was highly praised.
Science and technology have given man innumerable machines, gadgets, and devices such as TV, AC, computers, vehicles, internet, smartphones, etc. These things have made his life so easy and full of comforts. Science and technology have the potential to solve all of man’s problems and challenges provided it is put to right use. But this potential is not being explored. Man is busy misusing science. For example, our planet earth has so much of Uranium, Thorium, Plutonium, etc. that if used optimally, abundant power can be generated for all the people living in all the countries of the planet. The sad thing is man’s focus is on creating deadly nuclear weapons out of these wonderful resources given to him by beneficent Nature.
All the problems pertaining to pollution, environmental degradation, etc. can be solved using science. All the cities of the world can be converted into smart cities using science; all the vehicles that emit toxic gases can be converted into zero emission vehicles using science; all the sewage, garbage, effluents, toxic fumes coming out of chimneys can be turned into non-polluting substances using science. However this is being done only in the most advanced countries of the world.

It is up to man whether he uses it or misuses it.
