Detailed explanation-2: -Pollution-Air, water, heat and noise pollution can all be caused by producing and using technology. Consuming resources-Non-renewable resources, including precious metals like gold, are used to make technology. Many others, such as coal, are consumed to generate the electricity to use technology.
