sustainability
After more research on the topic of sustainability, I now know there is much more that can be explored than I realized. That is why I am taking somewhat of a different approach. I am going to research the concept of 'disruptive technology'. A term that describes technology that is unrefined. It describes when new technoloy is continuously created- created too quickly for the consumer to accept it and adapt to it before a new and supposedly better invention is introduced. I am going to explore the idea of disruptive innovation in general and how this could not only be preventing stimulation in the economy but also wasting a ton of money and time. I do not know too much about this subject, but it is very interesting to me. I'm hoping its not too new of a concept for me to find a sufficient amount of information.

This sounds like the apple company, they tend to do this a lot. So annoying! I think your topic sounds really interesting.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Shelby about Apple they tend to come out with a new product every month. Other companies could be Nintendo or Sony they come out with a new gaming system or a new hand held every year, therefor the games for the other systems become obsolete and a total was of money.
ReplyDeleteThis is brilliant! I never would have thought about that. I agree with Shelby and Yana, it's annoying when companies bring out new stuff too fast. I'm sure your paper will be very interesting.
ReplyDeleteI love your topic. Last year I wrote a paper for my philosophy class called "The Ethics of Texting" and how technology has impacted our generation. It's not exactly the same, but along those lines. I love reading about this kind of stuff and how technology is going to effect us in the long run. Anyways, awesome choice and get into it, it is very interesting!!
