Industrialization was not worth the price, on society or the environment. It was ruining children’s lives. Lewis Hines made a poster in 1913-14 that proves this. It shows that children are “good material” at first, but when treated badly and paid low wages, they become human “junk”. Are we risking children’s lives with industrialization? The factories in this process also released lots of pollution into the air. A photo taken in 1890 proves this. It shows smoke shooting out of four pipes, in massive amounts. This caused people to have to use street lights to see during the day! Another reason I don’t support this is because many people were killed. There was a news report taken in the 1900s. It says that 526 men were killed in factories during this time. For all of these reasons, I believe it wasn’t worth the price. 😕
