The document discusses how technology affects the environment. It notes that while technologies have enabled remote activities like work and school, these activities produce a carbon footprint by emitting greenhouse gases. Additionally, manufacturing electronic devices has a major environmental impact. The document then lists some of the specific effects of technology on the environment, such as air pollution from carbon emissions and resource exploitation needed to mass produce tech products.

Does technology affect the environment?
Technologies have made it possible to do all kinds of activities without having to move, such as taking classes, working, making calls, sending messages or emails, making videoconferences, etc. All these actions leave a carbon footprint, that is, they emit CO₂ (greenhouse gases), so that the use of ICT and technology does have negative effects on the environment, in addition, the manufacture of electronic devices also it has a great impact on nature. Effects of technology on the environment
Air pollution from the carbon footprint generated by
each person and the burning of fossil fuels to mass produce technological products. Exploitation of natural resources, mainly oil and the demand for metals extracted from mines in countries of extreme poverty or in political conflict. Technological waste waste in areas far from the city that contaminate the flora and fauna of various regions. Affectation of soils and seas due to the slow decomposition of the technological scrap thrown in those places.

Does technology affect the environment? Activities such as making calls, sending emails or holding video conferences involve a digital carbon footprint, that is, they generate CO₂ and greenhouse gas emissions. The use of technology does have negative effects on the environment. The manufacture of technological devices also represents a huge impact on nature. Consequences of technology on the environment: Atmospheric pollution. Exploitation of natural resources, such as oil and the demand for metals extracted from mines. Destruction of forests, rivers, lakes and their gradual deterioration accompanied by the disappearance of species. Sedimentation and waste of large amounts of water. High energy consumption of machines and material resources. Technological residues in areas far from the city that contaminate the flora or fauna of various región

Does technology affect the environment? Technological advances make people's lives easier, however, in recent years it has become a concern to make technological innovations friendly to the environment so that natural resources are used without generating a great environmental impact. COVID-19 made electronic devices visible as an essential part of human life, through them people can carry out daily activities, however, in addition to knowing their usefulness, it is also essential to know what are the consequences of their use in environment.
