Exploration Unmanned probes Mars Hubble Space telescope

5. Impact of Science & Technology Expanding Global Communications Events in one part of the globe are witnessed by people far away Small, powerful computers 1940s – original computers took up a whole room Circuitry has been miniaturized, partly due to fit into space capsules Silicon chips replaced big vaccum tubes Communication networks 1990s – the internet emerges Began in the 1960s as linkage for scientists to share info and research 1995 – 26 million users 2012 – 2.2 billion users How has this changed how people work??

6. Impact of Science & Technology Technology Transforms Human Life? Health and Medicine Medical imaging (CAT scans and MRIs) leads to better diagnoses Genetic engineering – scientists can introduce new genes into an organism to give it new traits Cloning – the creation of identical copies of DNA, used to create new reproductions of existing plants and animals Applications – agriculture, pharmaceuticals

7. Impact of Science & Technology Molecular Medicine 2003 – Human Genome Project completed Map of the thousands of genes contained in DNA Helpful to develop “molecular medicine,” which works to cure and to detect genetic diseases Gene therapy – replacing a patient’s diseased genes with normal ones International effort One of the largest investigative projects in the history of science.

8. Impact of Science & Technology The Green Revolution Attempt to increase food production worldwide Began in the 1960s Promoted use of fertilizers, pesticides, and disease-resistant crops Negative side: Fertilizers and pesticides may cause cancer or pollute Cost of chemicals and equipment is too high for normal farmers Farmers pushed off land by large agricultural businesses *** Changes resulting from technology: what people produce, how people work, how economies work, how people communicate ***

16. Global Economic Development Technology Revolutionizes the Economy Explosion in scientific knowledge prompts growth in industry after World War II Information industries emerge Lower need for factory workers Greater need for “knowledge workers” – finance, insurance, research, communications, law, etc. Effects of New Economies Manufacturing jobs leave developed nations Emerging nations – those in the process of industrializing Why???

17. Global Economic Development Globalization – the process of spreading economies and cultures worldwide Global economy – all financial interactions that cross borders Globalization grows since the 1940s – why? Better communication Cheap transportation Rise of multinational corporations (Exxon Mobil, Ford, BP, Toyota, etc.) Expanding free trade Free trade – elimination of trade barriers/opening markets to trade Major goal of globalization Organizations promote the reduction of tariffs WTO – World Trade Organization EEC – European Economic Community EU – European Union NAFTA – North American Free Trade Agreemetn

18. Global Economic Development Globalization – for… Increase in standard of living everywhere Promotes peace through trade Creates jobs in emerging nations Sense of world community Globalization – against… Developed nations benefit more Creates conflict because it is unfair Takes jobs from developed countries Erodes local cultures

19. Global Economic Development Impact of Global Development Political Impacts Manufacturing and transport requires energy (oil) Countries that have oil have special power over countries that need oil 1991 – Persian Gulf War – Iraq invades Kuwait to seize oil fields Environmental Impacts Burning of coal and oil releases carbon dioxide Pollution & global warming Ozone Layer – damaged by release of chemicals called CFCs, increase in skin cancer Soil erosion – result of damaging farming techniques Large-scale extinctions

20. Global Economic Development Sustainable Growth Economists and scientists look for ways to reduce the negative effect that global development has on the environment Can growth occur without damaging air, water, and land?
