Technological advancement and environmental conservation:Paradoxes and some solutions

For the past two centuries since the advent of industrial revolution, man has
tremendously improved his scientific and technological knowledge with the aim
of promoting his quality of life.
However, some of our technological innovations and developments have ended
up being "double-edged" with environmental side effects which threaten the
survival of other living beings including man himself.
This project undertakes to search for an ethical guideline as we advance
technologically in agricultural sector in particular, bearing in mind SOInC of the
negative impacts of our modem agricultural techniques on the environment and
the need for optimum quantity and high quality agricultural production.
