Technology is not neutral.
It's not just the effect of technology on the environment, on religion, on the economic structure, on society, on politics, etc. It's that everything now exists in technology to the point where technology is the new and comprehensive host of nature of life.
What I'm trying to do is to at least raise a flag to the blinding light of technology.
We can have technology, prosperity, nice homes and cars, but at the same time we must be conscious of what we are dumping into the water, the air and our food.

There are better alternatives... Australia should be exporting its solar technology, not its uranium.
Technology without hatred can be a blessing. Technology with hatred is always a disaster.
