This document discusses various technological disasters throughout history. It notes that while technological progress has benefits, it also brings technological disasters such as the Chernobyl explosion whose effects are still felt today. It also discusses the dangers of nuclear weapons as seen by their use in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, as well as chemical disasters such as the Bhopal plant explosion where authorities initially kept silent about the accident, resulting in many people being affected and awful consequences. The document concludes that while humanity evolves, the concept of "develop" could also mean "degrading" if development hurts others as it would hurt oneself.

Technological progress – it’s very good. Humanity has reached a high level of development. But all is not gold that glitters… Technological progress brings wits it a lot of technological disaster. The most famous catastrophe of the explosion of the twentieth century, is Chernobyl. The result of the explosion of the station is still being felt. The more is die… . Nuclear weapons are dangerous. It can bring irreparable harm to all living things. It is a pity that it is used for such purposes. The most “famous” nuclear bounding occurred in 1945. Then U.S. forces destroyed two Japanese cities – Hiroshima and Nagasaki. But not only nuclear substances are dangerous, but also chemical. Thanks to research in chemistry, scientists have achieved great result, but regardless of the consequences. Most of the chemical accident occurred in the Indian city of Bhopal. Then in the city exploded plant chemicals. But as in the case of Chernobyl, the authorities kept silent about the accident. Then a lot of people were affected and the effects were just awful. It would seen that – humanity is not static, it evolves. But the word “develop” I mean the concept of “degrading” because you have to be so human, that would hurt the same as yourself…
