Technology can help

I believe that technology can only help us towards our goal of saving the environment. We currently do not have close to the technology to save us. Technology can help us get closer to our goal but we need to do things individually to also reach our goal. Changing to green energy can dramatically help us. If we move markets to green energy greater technologies will emerge from it. Right now money is in oil and other dirty power sources so technology is increasing greater in that realm. If we move away from these dirty energy sources we have a much brighter future. Not only do we have to worry about our country but we also have to think about the developing nations coming into the picture. China and India are starting to make large strides in the world and with these strides their carbon footprint is becoming larger. In this aspect technology can either save us or destroy us. Much of our future depends on what type of technology we use. If China and India continue to use cheap and dirty fuel our future does not look bright but if they use greener alternatives we can hold on longer. Most of the ideas of technology that can help change our global climate back to normal are ridiculous. For example the idea of shooting sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere to fix the depletion that we have created. The problem however is that this creates acid rain among other things and destroy our environment even greater.
