The technological development is incredible, so much that in a few years we will be able to do trips to the space, Our life changes to a dizzy pace and all that thank you the continuous one and increasingly rapid technological development.
In the day of today there exist networks that they allow us to communicate to us to any part of the world in question of seconds, to construct skyscraper many big mas, to realize transplants of artificial organs and we are obtaining a vaccine against the HIV.
Things that before were impossible nowadays real is making . Then if there are so many technological advances because even there exist countries that are not capable of covering the basic needs of his population? If we are capable of extracting energy of a seed, because we are not capable of feeding billion persons? Not serious the major technological advance to guarantee a better life to so many persons who need it in the whole world without destroying the planet?
Is not the use of the technology neutral, if the knowledge and the resources of the world are used to make the car mas rapidly or to construct the skyscraper mas highly in that we are contributing to reach a more just global and better company? Is not it a question of being to favour or in opposition to the technology if not in being critics and to ask us that types of applications promote and in benefit of whom, in a world where the problems are global we must find solutions for all, do technology is like to do politics and since the politics is a matter of general interest not we should to be able to decide that we want type of technology? This way to choose the suitable mas. We have two options the first one is to choose for the type of technology that does not bear in mind the negative social impacts and environmental intense mas in countries of development. Projects that need the extraction of big quantities of raw material provoking the depletion of the resources, infraestructure that generate massive displacements of the population and that contaminate the sources of waters or the natural spaces and agricultural or industrial activities that concern the access to the land or the food, the second serious option uses of the technology that does not compromise the sustainable use of the planetary resources and the fundamental rights of the persons, a technology that helps to eradicate the poverty worldwide, of I begin there are some examples of initiatives that put the use of the tecnology to the service of the human development.
