Were the results of the industrial revolution worth the human cost?
olga nikolaevna [1]
This question is a good one. It has a lot to consider. That includes the advantages and disadvantages of the Industrial Revolution. Depending on the person the opinion may differ on which had more. Though society did progress by the Industrial Revolution, and it created the fast, pleasure seeking life we enjoy today. It also affected human life and even more nature. Better said the Industrial Revolution did alter humanity and nature. Whether that is bad or not we are still watching today, as the Industrial Revolution only continues .
