Technological Developments

New Information Technologies Research was once done using books such as encyclopedias, magazines, and non-fiction books. We now have the capability to research on the Internet and many books, magazines, newspapers, and etc. are available in computer format.

Desalinization In many areas there is a lack of fresh drinking water. Scientists are experimenting with ways of heating and cooling salt water in order to separate the salt and make fresh water. This process is called desalinization. One of the world’s largest desalinization plant is in El Paso, Texas. Desalination video

Agriculture Technology also assists farmers in agriculture. Today scientists have developed better seeds, improved fertilizers, and stronger pesticides to kill harmful insects. Farming

Trade In ancient times people used to trade with nearby communities. Later ships grew larger and societies carried on more active trade across the world. If you look around your house you will find things made in China, Mexico, Japan, Chile, Italy and many other countries.

Medicine Technological innovations are also leading to improvements in medicine. Scientists now understand DNA and are able to design and test new medicines to fight specific diseases. They are able to use CAT-scans and MRIs to put together 3-D images based on thousands of pictures of the patient. They are able to understand why we become ill and develop new cures.
