Technology was made via human intelligence. therefore going against technology is going against human intelligence.
You can't save the world by complaining. Do something. I walk or ride a bus everywhere, to cut down on greenhouse gases - and guess what? the hole in the ozone layer is shrinking! Isn't that proof enough that we're trying to fix things?

Couldn't have said it better!

Technology isn't a curse, don't let eccentric religious groups or environmentalists tell you otherwise. Because of technology we have become more in-tune with nature than any creature. We can predict the weather, create or own lakes and forests, and realize the effect of all our actions on the whole planet! I might be saying this because I'm a Techie though. :aang4:

Technology is extremely important to survival. If it were for technology, Katrina would have killed more people than the 1900 Galveston Hurricane which is the deadliest in US history.

Water power? very interesting. Breaking H2O into an unstable form of hydrogen dioxide that immediately rebonds into water when introduced to O. Pretty promising, I wonder what amount of power is needed to break the compound down like that.

It's no where near perfected enough to be put to practical use you have to wait several hours just to get enough to turn a car on. Of course it depends that's just water.

Yeah, but we just haven't made either efficient enough yet. They are working on making solar panels that absorb more of the spectrum though. Plus they're trying to create windmills that work like giant kites. This way they can get them up into the jet stream where it's always windy.

Actually their working on putting solar power to mass use right now. They just haven't built all of them yet. Once they're done that one field could power every house and business totally for an entire city.
[size=7]First of all, Papa smurf didn't create smurfette, Garamel did. She was sent in as Garamel's evil spy with the intention of destroying the smurf village, but the overwelming goodness of the smurf way of life transformed her. And as for the whole gangbang senario it just couldn't happen. Smurfs are asexual the don't even have reproductive organs under those little white pants. That's what so illogical, you know, about being a smurf. I mean, what's the point of living if you don't have a dick.[/size]

I saw something called Eco-Tech. I remember them talking about highly efficient solar panels and windmills designed for the city. It's soming on again I just have to find out when.

Sky scrapers are our least manipulated technology environment wise. We could apply semi-transparent solar panels on upper levels and install wind turbines along the top.
