“WE SHOULD GIVE UP SOME OF OUR COMFORT AND TECHNOLOGY IN ORDER TO SAVE THE PLANET”

PROS:

·      Reducing our consumption of resources and energy can help to reduce our carbon footprint and slow down climate change.

·      Conserving resources can help to preserve biodiversity and protect natural habitats for species that are at risk of extinction.

·      Using less technology can reduce our reliance on non-renewable resources like oil, gas, and coal, which are finite and contribute to air and water pollution.

·      Living a simpler, more sustainable lifestyle can help to promote mindfulness, reduce stress, and promote a greater sense of community and social cohesion.

CONS:

·      Giving up certain forms of technology or conveniences may be inconvenient or even impossible for some people, particularly those who depend on technology for their livelihoods.

·      Some people may feel that they are being asked to sacrifice their quality of life in order to address a problem that they did not create.

·      The transition to a more sustainable lifestyle may be difficult or costly, particularly for those who are already struggling to make ends meet.

·      It may be difficult to get everyone to agree on what technologies or conveniences we should give up, and there may be disagreements over who should bear the burden of making sacrifices.
