How do CFC’s illustrate that technical advances can be a “double-edged” sword?

Sagot :

Answer:

CFC’s illustrate that technical advances can be a “double-edged” sword as CFC's were made for the advantages but soon or later it came as a disadvantage for environment.

CFC's was discovered with many advantages such as they are stable, non-corrosive, and replacement of harmful ammonia used in refrigerators  and air conditioning systems. But soon it is also discovered that CFC's are destroying  the upper atmosphere layer called ozone, which is a very big disadvantage for us. CFCs are major contributor  to global warming after carbon dioxide.

Hence, it proves that CFC’s shows how technological advancement can be “double-edged” sword.
