H-Dub 2-23


I agree with Nye's narrative and beliefs of the advancement of technology. During the argument he describes how each possible tool that we use could influence a different story. I fine this to be a very true and interesting point. We use tools in our every day life. The use of tools simplifies a task at hand. MOst times we are able to use one or more of our tools to solve or overcome our problem. But by choosing a particular tool you influence the layout of your day, week, month or even years to come. I believe that technology is an amazing thing. Organisms have been using tools (which are classified as technology) ever since the dawn of time. However, I do not believe that it is only humans, or prime apes that only use tools; animals that are not as advanced use tools every day sucj asbirds, ants, elephants, giraffes and many other animals. Although these animals may not actually grasp something and use it to make a task easier, they are equipped with the tools that make their day to day life easier.

So as yoiu can see many organisms use tools throughout their day to day lives. They may be equipped with these tools at birth, or they may have to find or make them on their own. However, they are still tools so it is still technology. As species continue to evolve we can expect that the use of technology will evolve along with it.
