for a number of reasons. In particular, science is
important to world peace and understanding, to the
understanding of technology, and to our understanding of
the world.
Science
is important to world peace in many ways. On one hand,
scientists have helped to develop many of the modern
tools of war. On the other hand, they have also helped
to keep the peace through research, which has improved
life for people. Scientists have helped us understand
the problem of supplying the world with enough energy;
using energy from the sun and from the atom. Scientists
have also analysed the world’s resources. Scientists
studies the Universe and how to use its possibilities
for the benefit of men.
Scientists
are also important to everyone who is affected by modern
technology. Many of the things that make our lives
easier and better are the results of advances in
technology. In some cases, such as technology for taking
salt out of ocean water, technology may be essential for
our lives on Earth.
Scientists
are learning to predict earthquakes, to study many other
natural events such as storms. Scientists are also
studying various aspects of human biology and the origin
and developments of the human race. The study of the
natural world may help improve life for many people all
over the world.
A
basic knowledge of science is essential for everyone. It
helps people to find their way in the changing world.
