Effect of social media on the brain

Social media matters to me because now days since everyone is working at home people have spent 10 times the amount of time on social media than before working from home. This make’s it easier to spread false news or negative news to people through social media. Limiting time on social media and stop leafing through false or negative news matter’s to the people around me because a bad influence on social media could affect the emotional sate or their sate of mind to and if everyone is depressed it affects more people around them so it’s like a never ending cycle until all the people around the globe are affected emotionally by social media. This matter to the world because most people tend to get addicted to social media after using it a few times which makes it harder to focus on anything else and that is bad because if 7 and a half billion people got engrossed in social media they would forget to pay bill or if some one was a high ranking officer they would forget to give out orders, so basically what I am trying to say is the world would be in chaos but no one would notice because of their addiction to social media, it is like world wide extinction but by phones and tablets instead of climate change of meteorites.

How could we change this matter

But what if people take this matter seriously the world would not be full of plastic or filled with fake news, so when people spend a limited time on social media so it is allowing them to do other things like pay bills water plants so over all their day will not be a full day spent on social media but a well balanced day, and if they were to spend a limited amount of time on social media they would not get influenced by false news or negative news for that matter, and it will help their emotional state improve. And for another point spending limited time on social media can impact other world problem’s like factory pollution , or animals trafficking, they could take action to stop these thing and spread awareness via social media. If I take this matter seriously I can changes many people lives and help the environment so the world can be paradise for living things like us and we just have to take one simple step limit our time and what we see or hear on social media. If the globe were to take this seriously we could change the way we live entirely, we could live more positively, we could live and eco-friendly life style, so if we just take that simple step we could love a better life. If people ignored this topic it could potentially lead to war between people based on fake news, the people who believed the fake news would be protesting or killing for absolutely no reason, and everything would be in chaos and like I said before it is like world wide extinction by social media.

How social networking affect human’s

He notes that they can destroy privacy, and said that "Insurance companies have accessed their patients’ Facebook accounts to try to disprove they have hard-to-verify health problems like depression, employers have checked social networking sites to vet future employees. University authorities have searched the web for photos of their students’ drinking or smoking pot.
