PLN 18-2

Mr. Utech

This post really stuck out to me. I think that technology is a great thing and that if we use it well it can do great things. Also we can’t completely depend on it for all our needs. This 7 days when we don’t use any TV’s, computers, cell phones, or even Ipod's is a great way for people to see what it would be like if we didn’t have any technology. Also it would save a lot of electricity and that is a huge topic now a day's because of global warming. I have participated in a day like this when everyone around the world turned of their lights for 1 hour. It was equivalent to taking 48,000 cars off the road for 1 year. This is a major thing and if we as a nation or world we to do it more than just once a year we could slow down global warming and green house gases. Also not having lights is even more to add to the week of no technology. I think that people should try this event out and see how it affects them, for the better, or the worse.
