Good afternoon, I’m going to talk about the notion "the idea of progress."
First of all, I would like to define the main concept of this notion: progress, a scientific or social change and development that allows society to move towardstoward an improved and more advanced condition. Nowadays, progress is progressingaccelerating faster and faster, at a rate that we manage to follow with difficulty. However, although progress is mostly seen as beneficial, a part of society continues to fear it, since they believe that progress can cause more problems than it solves. We may wonder: whichwhat are the negative and positive sides of progress.progress? To answer this question, we are going to study 2will examine two different documents whichthat deal with this notion. First documentsThe first document is a speech pronouncedgiven by Greta Thunberg that shows how progress may improve our quality of life, then. Then we will work with an article from Forbes magazine Forbes that allows us to present the ethical limits to progress.
