HOW THE WORLD HAS CHANGED

We have come a long way since the stone wheel, cave homes and dinosaurs.....So, let's take a look at some "things" that may have made this planet of ours a different place: Events, incidents, discoveries, inventions and so on.  There is no doubt that the invention of the wheel facilitated such vital developments as transport, and travel, but there must be more factors that have contributed too. 

I ask you to think of inventions and discoveries that have changed the world, for the better or for the worse.  The list of items is potentially infinite but choose ones that you feel have made  significant contributions to the change of our world and explain the reasons for your decisions. 

I got these:

for the better: the engine, glasses, the mop, x-rays, etc.......

for the worse: pollution, bombs, weapons, etc......

In addition, what specific inventions and developments have changed your life? and why?
