Are we all living artificial life now?

My father or grandfather have lived their life i should say as even if they didn't have these many facilities what we have, they have enjoyed life. Old people who have lived in past years have struggled a lot and were working hard to live their life and the satisfaction what they were getting was  more than what we are all getting now.
It seems we have too many facilities now and with all these facilities and improved technology also, tensions are more among people  and there is also less time for everybody now . Things have become more of artificial kind these day's and parents don't even get to spend more time with their children just because their life has become very mechanical these day's. Children do get attracted to many of the modern entertainment things like Internet browsing, playing video games etc as parents also don't have much time to look at their own children's progress.
Stress has become common among all people and in search of peace they tend to get more health problems and it seems people these day's are not as strong as olden day people.
Olden day's mother nature was also very cool with greenery all around and today tree cutting has become common all over the world making our world still warmer and we need Air-Conditioner all the time now when the temperature is unbearable.
Don't you think we are also responsible in one or the other way in spoiling everything in this world ? we are witnessing natural disasters more and more now and dont you think that even earth has got its own balance and maintaining it's balance when people living in this world cannot do the needful?
