My Favourite Sustainable and Disruptive Technologies


My favourite sustainable and disruptive technologies would be my laptop and my cellphone.

My laptop is a disruptive technology that I use on a daily basis. I say it is disruptive because growing up, my mother had a type writer, and she would teach my brother and I how to type. So, having a typewriter and a laptop at home is a big change in our home. Needless to say, the typewriter- although in very good condition- is collecting dust on the box it is tucked away in!

My cellphone is definitely a sustainable technology. I say it is sustainable because back in the day we had telephones (phones at home), then cordless phones (phones you can be more mobile with within your home), and now, cellphones (a phone you can use anywhere!). I got my first cellphone when I was 17 in 2003 and now, could not imagine life without it.
