Technology poses serious health risks that can even lead to death. Mobile phones emit radiation that has killed millions of birds and contains toxic chemicals that pollute the environment. Computers can cause neck, back, eye strain and carpal tunnel syndrome. WiFi routers use electromagnetic fields linked to health issues. Medical technology causes 100,000+ unnecessary deaths annually from mistakes, radiation, and over-prescription of antibiotics. Home electronics and appliances all emit electromagnetic fields that impact health, with high risk areas being air conditioners, microwaves, fluorescent lights, and baby monitors. Technology is also negatively impacting youth by replacing important activities like homework, family time, and sports with excessive video game and screen time dependencies.
5. Mobile phones
• Due to mobile phone
radiations millions of birds
are led to death.
• Mobile phones contain
toxic chemicals and metals
which when leaked and
accumulated within our
environment, will lead to
vast pollution.
• SOCIAL Impact

11. Food biotechnology
Genetic modified food Negetive effects
• allergic reaction
• low quality products
• Reduce quality of soil
• failure of antibiotic-based
treatments of human
• foods that carry toxic
effect genes can cause
human illness.
12. Home electronics
Every Home appliance emit some amount of EMF
(electro-magnetic field) that effects our health.
14. EMF dangerous spots in Home
• Air Conditioners
• Microwave oven
• Fluorescent Lighting
• Electric Sockets
• Cordless Phones
• Telephone Landlines
• Electric Blankets
• Electric Clocks
• Electric Razors and Hair Dryers
15. Effects of technology on our Youth
• Our generation has come out
with all of these new
technologies such as the Wii,
Playstation, .
• These technologies may be fun
but they have caused young
kids to start depending on
technology at an early age.
• Instead of doing their
homework, chores, spending
time with their family, or playing
sports most choose video
games as their main priority.
