Industrial revolution was a great impact throughout the world. It has now improved our technology. Without industrial revolution there wouldn't be any social media, technology, transportation, etc. It was a great time for inventions and we should be grateful for it. But there were also the bad effect of it like global warming, air pollution, water pollution, etc. So in this presentation you can find the good and the bad effects for it.
2. WHEN DID IT START?
ï Industrial revolution started at 1760 and
continued through 1990.
ï This process began in Britain in the 17th
century and from there spread to other parts
of the world.
ï The main features involved in the Industrial
Revolution were technological,
socioeconomic, agriculture and cultural
improvement.
3. WHERE DID IT START?
âą THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION BEGAN IN GREAT
BRITAIN.
âą IT ALL STARTED IN ENGLAND AND IN THE MAIN CITY
LONDON.
âą INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION STARTED IN THE 17TH
CENTURY.
5. WHO STARTED IT?
âą Sir Richard Arkwright was a textile
industrialist and inventor of machinery and
started the first industry.
âą He became interested in spinning machinery
at least by 1764, when he began construction
of his first machine.
âą It produced a cotton yarn suitable for warp.
6. THE FIRST STEAM
MACHINE
âą It was James watt who made the first
steam machine.
âą He was a Scottish instrument maker who
designed an engine in which burning
coal produced steam.
âą It first application was to more quickly
and efficiently pump water out of coal
mines.
8. Agricultural Revolution
ï§ The Agricultural Revolution of the 18th century paved the way for the
Industrial Revolution in Britain.
ï§ New farming techniques and improved livestock breeding led to amplified food
production.
ï§ This revolution increased the amount of food production and solved the food famine then.
ï§ This allowed a spike in population and increased health. The life expectancy rate
increased.

10. SOCIAL EFFECTS
ï§The Industrial Revolution changed material
production, wealth, labor patterns and population
distribution.
ï§The new industrial labor opportunities caused a
population shift from the countryside to the
cities.
ï§Children as young as four years old worked long
hours in factories under dangerous conditions.
ï§Life expectancy was under 25 years in the early
Colony of Virginia, and in seventeenth-century
New England.
ï§The discrimination Between rich and poor was
huge.
11. Political Effects
ï Robert Malthus (1766â1834) wrote an essay, "The Principles
of Population," predicting widespread famine on the
grounds of London.
ï Malthus blamed the lower classes for having too many
children and proposed that laws be passed limiting the
number of children people were allowed to have.
ï Women used to get less money than men but both equally
did there work.
ï There was lot of discrimination between men and women.
Because of the government.
12. Economical Effects
ï§Gradually, very gradually, a middle class, did emerge in industrial cities,
mostly toward the end of the 19th century.
ï§However new urban industries gradually required more of what we call
today âwhite collarâ jobs, such as business people, shopkeepers, bank
clerks, insurance agents, merchants, accountants, managers, doctors,
lawyers, and teachers.
ï§In this new middle class, families became a sanctuary from stressful
industrial life.
ï§The overall amount of goods and services produced expanded dramatically,
and the proportion of capital invested per worker grew.
ï§So the workers got sufficient amount of money to spend in there needs and
also got few for there wants.
13. POPULATION EFFECTS
âą The birth rate in Britain rose in this period,
mostly as people married early, although
the figures for out of wedlock births rose
too.
âą Lots of people migrated to big cities to work
and made sufficient amount of money and
food security.
âą So they increased there population and
gradually the population increased.
14. ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS
âą The natural resources necessary to make the
production possible were under great demand.
âą As a result of the growth of production as well as
population, the demand had surpassed the availability
showing the implications of limited available
resources.
âą Dense fog of soot and noxious waste gases covered
towns built around iron and steel works.
âą Rivers and canals were polluted with sewage and
industrial waste. Cholera took many lives due to
people using water from canals and rivers for cleaning
and cooking.
15. Global warming
ï” It is a gradual increase in the overall temperature of the
earth's atmosphere generally attributed to the
greenhouse effect caused by increased levels of carbon
dioxide, CFCs, and other pollutants.
ï” When we burn fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas to create
electricity or power our cars, we release CO2pollution
into the atmosphere. This causes the unusual
temperature rise.
ï” Australian farming contributes 16% of our total
greenhouse gas emissions.
16. âą The industrial revolution was a time of great imagination and
progress. The inventions that allowed new products to be
manufactured created a demand that caused a vicious cycle that
propelled some people to prosperity, while at the same time held
people down in poverty. It was almost never the intent of the
inventors, scientists, and other brilliant people to cause such a chasm
between the working class and the industrial machine, but it was,
nonetheless, created. But Anyway this caused our lives to be more
easy.
