Weather prediction machine: thermometer, air quality models etc

Without the help of technology, the time taken will be longer, the man power will be demand.

Natural disaster

Earthquake in Japan

How does it lead to advancement of knowledge in environmental science?

After advancement of technology, building would not collapse easily after earthquake (earthquake resistant building)
