What new technology will be useful to us?

How much more technology can we handle and what’s wrong with what we already have?

Not so many years ago cars were few and far between, the thought of flying was a pie in the sky, and we sat in thatched house reading our one book by candle light.

Over a short period of time we have introduced electricity to the planet which has given mankind control over basic items of our existence. We have not only seen the growth of the motor car which is now chocking our city streets bur we have landed men on the moon and brought them back.

Television has brought us pictures from around the world, and the surface of the moon. The internet is able to send information around the world in an instant. We can talk to our friends around the world and even watch them on our computer screens. On top of all this we can never get lost again with satellite navigation.

So what more do we need?

Well before all of our technology was invented our ancestors got on with their lives and never missed having these things.

What you’ve never had you never miss.

However our ancestors like us always strived to improve, looking for better spears for hunting, better material for building, better food to eat. It’s in our genes to strife and move forward discovering new and better things.

Basically we want to control our environment.

Returning to the question of future technology then we will always be looking forward. We all are aware of how much dependence we have on carbon burning energy and its effect on global warming so alternative energy sources will be discovered and developed.

After all we need more energy for all our electronic toys.

Don’t we?
