Summary of Technology & Construction

     In the informative article complied by Danny Blas, technology has changed how we lived and also where we lived because advanced technology made more factories and more jobs, moving jobs from the farm towards the city.
     Technology changed how people moved around because cars and trains were created causing faster transportation to far away places. As a result of being able to travel faster and farther, we were able to innovate on those ideas and create the transportation we have today. We also created improvements to old technology for example using steel for building bridges instead of concrete.

     Not only has technology changed how we build our buildings, or manufacture goods, it has also given us the opportunity to communicate with many other people all around the world. By using telephones, or cellular devices, along with social media, such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and email, we can connect with someone around the world with just a touch of a button.

   In the informational article complied by Danny Blas, a passive house is an environmentally responsible house without traditional heating and air conditioning. They are more sustainable than regular houses using the same amount of power a hairdryer uses.
     Some people may not want to build a passive house because of how much it costs to make it. Because of this some people may not want to build it because they can't afford  to build an Eco-Friendly home.
