Engineers Design A Better World

From time to time, the world changes from one thing to another. Everyday, a new business is owned by people.  Everyday, a new house is built for every person.  Technology all around us is being upgraded. More problems have been resolved.  This is all the thanks to engineers across the whole world.

Cars have become better and more endurance since we have first made cars.  They have become more safe equipped with side airbags, better brake systems, and much more.  Some may even have luxurious and capacious interior features.  All vehicles have been upgraded to almost their full potential. 

Buildings, towers, skyscrapers are being built to be very durable in any occasion.  Like the soon to be built buildings such as Burj Dubai (Dubai, U.A.E.) and the Freedom Tower (NYC, New York).  The Burj will be the tallest building in the world.  It will be over two-thousand feet. As for the Freedom Tower, it will be one-thousand, seven hundred seventy six feet tall (it will be because of the declaration of independence signed in seventeen-seventy six).  These buildings will be built to withstand winds, earthquakes and any other occasion, and as for other tall buildings, they have found to make elevators to go about 60 mph in some buildings such as Taipei 101. 

Airplanes have also been upgraded.  Some or all of them have fly panels on each wing of the plane, which was made in order to have more control of the plane.  Helicopters have become more durable too.  These help people travel from country to country, and help save lives from incoming danger.

Dams and levies are becoming more important because of the storms such as hurricanes, typhoons, cyclones, and etc.  These help to discard excess water from land, or city.  The levies can take water or deflect it back to the city, or river and etc.

Homes and furniture have been vitally important or crucial to the human environment.  They gave us a place to live in, and have our own luxurious life.

Music from ipods, and other music players have helped us “make music our friend” of our daily lives.  Computers have helped us to get information we need instead of going to a nearby library and getting information from there.

All of these great things were created by inventors or engineers.  They made us have a better world, made better lives, and also can save lives.  They show us the way to humanity and prosperity.  The sky is the limit.
