Is progress beneficial for the society?

There can be many stands to this topic, but I for one chose to think that progress is neccesary for the society, however, too much progress might in turn do more harm than good.

I will first argue that progress is beneficial for society. If society has no progress since the olden days, we will still be wearing clothes made by animal skin, we will still have to go around hunting if we ever hope to fill our stomach and we will still have no education. Everybody will be outdoors, either hunting for food, growing vegetables or looking for a suitable place to stay. Do we want that? Of course not, therefore progress is neccesary for our lives to be more comfortable, and also to be more convenient.

Secondly, I will explain why too much progress will do more harm than good. Too much progress, might harm the environment. For instance, for the society to progress, we have to have land. And where can we get land? Cutting down trees is one solution. However, cutting down trees will result in global warming. Besides that, trees also help to purify the air, without them, the air will be very dirty.

In conclusion, progresscan be good, and can also be bad for the society. Progress is neccesary for the society, but too much progress might in turn become harmful, with that, I end my speech.
