Having the new and updated technology can be the best feeling but it also impacts the environment. A need is different from a want. A need is something that will help you live and nurture your health. A want is something that might be great in the present when you get it but it won't impact you in a huge way. To break this addiction of choosing wants over needs, put the environment in your head in the process of  making these decisions. Choose what will benefit you and the environment long-term.

I disagree, developing new technology is important, not just to our want but also to our needs. For example, food and medicine are extremely important innovations that are not needed. New tech like phones and cars are important and we cant just get rid of them to help the environment. I do however still believe we have an obligation to help the environment, even more so with the more technology we develop. Things that we want don't have to be bad for the environment, for example, phones. They need power and so with new technology, we need to create energy sources that do not harm the environment. Having wants aren't bad as long as we do the things we want to without harming the environment.
