Is having the latest technology a want or a need?
How often do you get a new cel phone or mp3 player? Did you really need a new model? Do you consider the environmental impact of these purchases? If you are addicted, how can you break your addiction?

Technology
Technology and the internet have become necessities all around the world. Companies release new phones, computers, and tablets a lot. But do we really need all of these new pieces of technology? Sure, they may be faster, they may be shinier, but they are 100% not necessities. Say you have an iphone 7, but you want the new iphone 10. Why? Is your phone really so bad that you have to get the newest one? I think people should wait until they're phones are broken are used up until they purchase a new one. It saves money, it saves time, and it's good for the environment. Just make sure you're thinking about what you are actually doing before you do it, and think about if you actually need the newest phone. This goes for all types of technology.
