Has advancing technology helped or hurt us?

Do you think advancing technology has helped or hurt us

I think that there is good things about technology but there is also some bad things.



Helping

I think that technology helps in schools, businesses, hospitals and community and it saves trees. Technology is fast and easy to work so it doesn't waste your time it's also helpful to all ages for example in schools teachers are using technology to help there kids with research and making learning more fun and 2400 trees where saved because of it.


Hurt us 

On the down side of technology it uses so much power and it causes people to become lazy and because of that they become fat which is not good also lots of people are getting bullied on social websites like facebook  for example there has been 1 million suicides this year due to tech.



In conclusion I think that technology can be good sometimes but not so much other times. I think that it does help us in lots of ways but also it hurts us.

Waitangi Day.

 

In the 1840's on the 6th of February. 40 Chiefs signed the treaty of Waitangi in the bay of Island. But in a few years over 500 more people signed the treaty.

The banner was getting carried because the maori's want everyone to honour the  tradition. Then in 1970 the protest increased because no one honoured the treaty.

Waitangi mean water tears, wai= water and tangi=tears
