The over-reliance on technology can lead to social underdevelopment in the future. When using technology, people tend to solely communicate on their devices and prefer that over talking in real life. The lack of face to face interactions can lead to our lack of social skills for future interviews, speeches, and communication.

Human activities today, or, more correctly, the lack of action, contribute more and more to the eventual point of no return for climate change and global warming. Because we are doing virtually nothing to slow emissions and are reaching no consensus on how to help developing nations reduce emissions, humanity is driving the earth towards eventual environmental collapse and an inhospitable habitat.

There are many steps that can be taken in order to alleviate environmental problems. One could be to limit the use of natural gases in many areas, like in cars, powering buildings, and others. We can also limit using single-use plastics in our daily lives by purchasing more reusable items and making them wider spread and more easily accessible.

Technological progress prevents problems from occurring by providing solutions and increasing efficiency. However, an over-reliance on technology can take away a key human ability: to be empathetic. If we turn to technology to solve our problems, we will no longer be able to communicate effectively with others or relate to their struggles, creating a world of emotional isolation and and a lack of social awareness.

Human activities which happen today set the stage for environmental collapse to a large extent because disregarding the future environment and only worrying about what is easier or better in the present will only make the environment worse. Activities such as deforestation, littering, and air pollution are the biggest factors which could greatly ruin the environment.

# data[].attributes.body
Long-term ramifications of consumerism and waste generation could be catastrophic. The ever-rising population that has been used to the luxury of disposing of waste and not worrying about the consequences will continue to do that. Eventually, the air will be too polluted to support life and we will lose most of our plant and animal life due to the destruction of their habitats and pollution.

Potential emotional consequences of humanity's over-reliance on technology can lead to fewer and fewer interactions in person. This can have a negative impact and promote online interactions over in-person, which leads to having little to no experience in communicating with people. Relying heavily on technology influences lazy behavior when technology, such as AI, interferes with things such as academic dishonesty.

What we do right now has a large impact on the coming centuries since with no regulation right now we are creating a culture that accepts large amounts of waste. The foundation we have set is leading us to collapse since we also don't have any plans for the future on how we plan to deal with it later on once it gets massive.

# data[].attributes.body
Human activities today are setting the stage for a future environmental collapse. Carbon emissions, resource excavation, deforestation, ozone degradation, and littering are all problems that are proving to be extremely detrimental to the environment. If these problems are not solved an environmental collapse is surely imminent.

The consequences of our over-reliance on technology has already started to infect teenagers and even adults. The use of technology to communicate and talk to others has limited us and how we talk face to face with others, our words have melted together and shut our mouths closed as we have turned to texting because we are too afraid to talk to actually people instead of humans behind screens.

# data[].attributes.body
Humans are setting the stage for environmental collapses in the future to a large degree. The amount of trash humans throw into landfills and into the ocean severely damages all the ecosystems around them. Gas pollution from factories is also breaking down the atmosphere and destroying even more of the environment.

# data[].attributes.body
Overreliance on technology consequently leads to the eradication of true human behaviors. People's thoughts are nullified, and face-to-face interaction can be absent.

The over-reliance on technology by humanity can cause the human spirit of hard work to deform. The more we rely on technology to do the work that we do on a day-to-day basis, the more lazy and unmotivated we became.

The absurd level of energy used for careless practices in modern society could lead to increased speeds of global warming. Bitcoin mining, for instance, uses astronomical levels of energy to simply move money around, not producing anything of technological value or scientific advancement for anyone. In a world where technology is often seen as entertainment, it is wasted and useful energy slips out of hand while the same pollution enters the atmosphere.

Technology has increasingly contributed to waste because of consumerism. The higher demand in supplies, such as plastic plates and cups, has increased waste because of the people who leave the trash out polluting the environment and causing harm.

An action that can be taken is a call for everyone to start using cleaner and eco-friendly materials. For example, electric vehicles can help reduce harmful gas emissions into the air.

If consumerism and waste generation are unchecked, the long-term ramifications could be detrimental for the world. Excessive amounts of either issue can result in over pollution, which can consequently lead to increased CO2 levels and global warming. Another consequence of unchecked consumerism and waste generation is the depletion of vital natural resources such as oxygen, livestock, and vegetation.

# data[].attributes.body
The rise of technology has promoted consumerism and waste in ways never before seen. The presence of fast fashion alone has caused an increase in plastics (other non-biodegradable materials) and a cycle of purchasing and then throwing away, once the fad is over.

# data[].attributes.body
Current human activities significantly increase the likelihood of an environmental collapse in the coming centuries. Activities such as the mass-production of unnecessary goods release large amounts of waste into our atmosphere since most companies do not use or cannot afford eco-friendly methods.

Over-reliance on technology can have detrimental effects on the social skills and relationships of society. Technology can cause people to become accustomed to being able to type from behind a screen, which often leads to people feeling uncomfortable or annoyed when interacting with people face-to-face, which is an important skill to possess in life.

Everyday human activities are setting up negative effects in the future. Overcompensation of fossil fuels will lead to climate control which affects each ecosystem in the world. This will cause animals to try to adapt quicker than they can and ultimately go extinct.

# data[].attributes.body
Human activities are the primary reason for environmental collapse. The excess amount of carbon dioxide emissions is causing average global temperatures to rise at an alarming rate, causing many species and environments to change for the worse or even go extinct, creating a feedback loop as the poles melt. Additionally, littering also has a negative effect on ecosystems, tainting them and also putting several species in danger, all contributing to a loss of life and biodiversity on a massive scale that, in a sense, has already started.

# data[].attributes.body
Technology has contributed to waste by increasing the production of products that have no environmentally friendly way to be disposed of. Machines at plants that make plastic bottles have skyrocketed the amount produced, at the cost of much more trash in the ocean as well as in landfills.

# data[].attributes.body
Human activities today set the stage for environmental collapse in the coming centuries due to the mass amount of waste produced by humans, as well as our over dependence on non-renewable resources. Non-bio-degradable materials are all around us, and when we throw them away they make their way into oceans and rivers that contaminate drinking water and destroy natural ecosystems. Additionally, the creation and usage of non-renewable resources like fossil fuels add pollutants into the air, which damages humans' and other animals' lungs as well as damage the atmosphere.
