little mermaid........a dream paradise

Technology has advanced increasingly during this age. From handphones to warcraft, everything is of good quality. However, there is a question I want to ask:
Is technology good or bad?
It has its advantages. Like, without it, we cannot further our studies in the science department; and maybe without it, the we would never find and research a way to make Mother Earth last longer.
However, the consequences of technology is bad. Have you ever thought, by building factories to advance technology, the gases produced is harming mother Earth? Also, have you thought, that we are destroying nature everyday by burning forests to make new homes for people? But at the same time, you are destroying homes for the animals! But the people will simply answer"Who cares? Theres the zoo." A zoo? Thats not the animal's natural habitat, its merely entertainment for we humans. And if certain animals are reduced to almost extinction, the govenment will start some campaign to protect the animals. Do they reflect on what they have done?
And we are robbing mother Earth of her natural resources. But people say, "Don't worry, we will find a way to save the Earth, technology is so advanced nowadays what..." What kind of attitude is that?
Furthermore, sometimes I feel like throwing my handphone away. It is stealing my privacy, and lurking into my own free space. As a growing kid, you need certain freedom. As I'm gettin older, i find the use of handphones stupid. So what if someone has the latest 3G handphone? Its horrible.
The moment your parents want to find you, just a few presses on their phone and "ring ring".

You will have to pick up.

Or, if you don't, when you go back home your parents would scold you. Threaten to take your phone away.

Handphones suck.
Technology....sucks in a way too.
Thats all I want to say.
Thank you for your attention.
