The Green Revolution

I believe that if we are going to keep up with population growth and not have to use every acre of land that could possibly be used to grow crops, new technology will be necessary. With the population growing and increasing environmental issues, there is a greater need for new technology to increase food production and reverse adverse environmental conditions. We must take care of land, air, and water issues, as well as providing a healthy food source for society and its growing numbers. I think a major focus of new technology should be better ways to sustain crop lands and decrease water usage. If society will take the initiative to slow or reduce population growth, then new technology will not be needed to increase food production and it will only be necessary to address environmental issues.
