interesting findings from the census

although this probably is more related to sustainability, it's a cool article of how we're using drones being used by park rangers to catch illegal poachers. Amazing!

great easy to read article about child development in relation to technology

Really interesting study that examines an unusual side of technological effects on society. A dense read, but worth a scan through the data and findings.

A question that often comes up when talking about the effects technology has on society and the use of our brains. I'm not sure I agree with the psychologist that wrote this. The statement at the end mentioning technology allows our brains to free up space to devote to more important things may be questionable. I'm not sure if memory in our brains is like the hard drive on a computer. Would be interesting to read an opposing viewpoint to this.

Very well written article by one of my favourite authors Jonathan Safran Foer, explaining the effects of technology on society's behaviour. Technology robs us of attention we would give or receive from others. It provides us with the perfect distraction and as a result can hinder opportunities for compassion and meaningful human interaction.
