Social Networking Helps The Environment???

 Do you know that technology actually plays a role in preserving the environment the way we all wish to do? Technological advancements like social networking may cause more of a smile than a frown once you understand their implications on our environment.


 Social networking is a subcategory of the Internet technology, and it actually saves the environment from millions of photographs printed every year and sent to loved ones or documented in albums. Indeed, even memories have gone digital, and although it may be considered unreliable by many of the older generation (as files can be so easily lost), it serves its purpose. For example, photos from one’s recent trip abroad can be quickly uploaded to a website for everyone to see, without needing to print a single photograph. Not only does it conserve paper, it also eliminates much of the chemical waste that comes from the photo-printing process.

  2. I totally agree with Almas. Actually, with technology, even when we accidentally delete a file, we can still retrieve it!http://www.ehow.com/how_4694739_retrieve-deleted-files.html However, I know that trying to retrieve a file may be very difficult and troublesome even when it is possible.

  8. I agree with Almas here. Social networking sites may be helpful at times and under certain circumstances. Eg. we are able to talk to friends besides texting or email-ing, which will take very long. But sometimes it may be better to talk face-to-face. We also have to keep the content appropriate for everyone.
