Often people are tempted to get buy technology because others around them have it and its a great source of entertainment; however, technology can also be used for better purposes and can benefit our environment. This includes technology such as solar panels or energy efficient batteries. This type of technology allows us the natural resources available to use and prevent us from polluting the air and oceans.

I agree with Madison that people are tempted to buy the newest technology because of peer pressure. I also think that it is a need to have technology that can benefit our planet because it will improve the state of our Earth, like technology that could help prevent global warming and or diminish the amount of waste.  This website that I found (https://www.greenbiz.com/blog/2014/03/1 … -the-world), touched on some of the possible green solutions/technology that could help prevent various issues. My opinion in regards to needing newest phones or computer is that it is more of a want, as it makes life more comfortable and you don't need it necessarily to live (although it might be difficult). I also believe that as time progresses, so will technology, and it may eventually become a need to have not necessarily the newest model, but a functioning model of technology.
