Science and Technology in Societal Development-Wealth Creation ilaganprincesskaye https://padlet.com/ilaganprincesskaye/qsvpbqdclc4h4ybi/wish/2345801532 technology is the primary engine of economic growth. It is the key and fundamental requirement for value addition to raw materials and people. It provides the key to unlocking any country's potential in terms of decreasing over-head costs associated without sourcing and creating employment opportunities.

Many developed and advanced countries did progress much because of their heavy investments on science and technology. 

Analysis of technologically advanced economics shows that at each level of the economy, science and technology provide the engine for economic growth. ]]> 2022-10-18 19:42:43 UTC https://padlet.com/ilaganprincesskaye/qsvpbqdclc4h4ybi/wish/2345801532 2.

Science and Technology in Agriculture, Affordable Energy, Water supply,Environmental Management, Economic Growth, Environmental Management and Rural Development- Real Economic growth ilaganprincesskaye https://padlet.com/ilaganprincesskaye/qsvpbqdclc4h4ybi/wish/2345899269 Science and technology have facilitated
higher yields, greater efficiency and greater nutritional
content in the worlds food supply.

Science and technology provided the foundation for Green Revolution and have allowed food prices to remain at historical lows for the past decades. Improved knowledge of plant
biology and breeding techniques led to better seeds and
cultivation practices that drastically increased yields.

Affordable energy is essential for people
currently living without electricity and is a pre-requisite for
economic growth.

Water is another vital but scarce resources for which, in
the absence of technological innovation, current and
projected use patterns can only lead to severe crises.

Environmental degradation at the local, regional and
global scale adversely affects the livelihoods, health and
vulnerability of poor people.

Science and technology are tragically important to
economic opportunity and growth.

Environmental degradation at the local, regional and
global scale adversely affects the livelihoods, health and
vulnerability of poor people. environment
degradation threatens poverty alleviation and long-term
sustainable development. The key challenge is to
recognize that local, regional global environmental issues
are inextricable linked and affect sustainable
development. The capacity of countries to adapt and mitigate can be enhanced when environmental policies are integrated
with national development policies.

the observation and classification of facts and formulation
of general truth. Science suggests ideas and technology
operationalizes them. Science which is a systematic search for truth provides the basis for technology. 

Technology as the application of techniques and not science that leads to increase in production. Important attribute of technology is that it does not just happen; it is developed and learned whether in the form of natural skills pr as an applied science.

Technology simply put is a means of harnessing our exploiting our understanding of nature for our own benefit. It is an application of knowledge for practical purpose. It is used to improve human condition, natural environment or to carry out other socio-economic activities. 

Without technology, science becomes impotent, and without science, technology does not exist.
